I am going to be powdercoating my polished cookie cutters with clear. Should I stop before the part of the wheel that contacts the tire, or should I powdercoat that too? What I'm worried about is potential damage from tire installation equipment. Does the clear on professionally clear coated wheels go under the lip?
Also, what brand of clear powder is the best? |

It's also a good idea to coat the whole thing because corrosion on the bead area will keep a tire from sealing. Probably not an issue with this set of tires, but the next set probably will. Condensation forms in the tires all the time. Cold day + driving = hot tires + condensation.
