I plan on having my rims soda blasted and painted to clean them up and since I'm new to this market I thought $500.00 for blasting and painting was a bit high. Am I wrong? I don't mind paying people for their work but I don't want to get ripped off either. I'll look around for others to do the work but I wanted to get a baseline of sorts.

If they are completely blasted clean, pits sanded out, correctly painted and they are ready to bolt on a show car, this is a great price.
If just some what blasted, wiped with vaporust , and shot with a spray bomb....Not so much!

I charge at least $100 - $150 per wheel and this is the result.. stripped and blasted...
