Just got my wheels back - blasted and dow 7 treated from PTI industries in Conn. They look good - so far I have a good paint shop lined up but I have one important question. The aluminum wheel inserts had to be pressed out as the Dow 7 process will EAT aluminum. I asked the paint show whether they wanted the inserts pressed back in befor or after paint. As I suspected they said after the paint as this makes it easy on them. I would like opinions on the risk of messing up the paint job by doing it after the paint. Any experience will be greatly appreciated!! Thanks Art
