Model A wheel powdercoating
Does anyone know where I can get some apple green powder to do my wheels? I have called the website that is supplying the powder for weeks and left messages bu no one will respond. Are they out of business, or are they just poor business people. I need 6# of the correct apple green color. does anyone know where I can get some?

With that said it appears that Apple Green-RAL 6025 is a close match.

Re: Model A wheel powdercoating
Actually, weren't all mod A wheels painted black? Then the agencies would re-color the wheels......for a price!

Re: Model A wheel powdercoating
I understand that the Deluxe Models, My Deluxe Phaeton, had color wheels from the factory. I could be wrong

Prior to June 1930, wheels were dipped in gloss black enamel.

Deluxe Tudor and Deluxe Fordor (160-.C) which were equipped with colored wheels as standard equipment. Ford specified that colored wheels were first dipped in a base coat of black enamel, then sprayed a final color coat. The following colors were available: June 1930 through June 1931; Apple Green, Aurora Red. Orange. Tacoma Cream.

Re: Model A wheel powdercoating
I paid http://www.modelawheelcolors.com/ for Apple Green 2 weeks ago and have not heard anything from them. I have sent 4 emails and called for 2 days.
I just initiated a charge back/complaint through Paypal against the company. I guess I didn't do my homework very well on the company either. Last edited by jwilliams81; 10-25-2016 at 02:37 PM. |

Re: Model A wheel powdercoating
I wonder if the Owner of that company died?
It seems odd to me that they would keep the website up if they are done. Several years have passed since it appears they have done any business on here that I know of. Either way it is sad to see this company still appearing to be in Business.

Northwest Powder Coating [email protected] 206-241-1614 FYI, I ordered on 8/23/15 and received the powder on 8/31/15. This is evidently a part-time business; I was patient and got my powder, apple green and was a perfect match. |
