Wheelsamerica, Sharon Hill, PA reviews?

I got a tip to take my Motegis here for cleaning and powder coating to keep them clean because they're freaking dirt magnets They're beautiful when they're clean, almost a hyper silver, but they're a biotch to clean, every inch of each spoke has to be meticulously hand-cleaned, and then they're filthy dirty in just a couple days again. I was just going to replace them, but I heard Wheelsamerica can coat them so that they stay clean... but then when I did a Google search I read bad reviews on them in the past seven, eight months.

Anybody familiar with them? Or have other tips on how to deal with these wheels? Thanks!

If it's not too far, Wheel Collision Center in Bath, PA is excellent. I took a wheel there all the way from NYC just to use them:

Thank you so much! I always feel so much better going to someplace recommended by one of us 8lovers. I'll get there sometime this month, and I'll post before and after pictures too.

Okay, just called them and was told they can't help, it depends on how "the driver drives." When I explained that the driver previously had Tenzos that were always clean with just a wipe-down or dust-down with a chamois or California Duster, he said he could paint them but it wouldn't help with the "easierness or harderness" to keep clean. It sounded like he couldn't be the slightest bit bothered with me.

The search continues... or maybe I'll just head to Tirerack.com.
