Any vendor is going to recommend only using soap/water. Under those conditions than what Sue said is "you should have no issues at all". She said that the work is completely guaranteed for 1 year, but she said that they do go over that if they can tell that chipping/fading/peeling is a result of their work.

Mike, they said that they can do bronze for you as well. It sounds like if we have a lot of interest, they will come down to $130 a wheel, any powder coat color in the gray/bronze/black/silver spectrum. Basically, any colors that are considered to be "typical". Colors like red/blue/pink (they had a request for pink) could be more. Still waiting on the owner. Will let you guys know when I find out more details.
