Default Questions about powdercoating

I was thinking of powdercoating my wheels, but I have a few questions...

I know they have to take the wheel off the car and the tire off the wheel to powdercoat, but do they do this or does the customer have to bring them bare wheels?

If the customer does not have to strip the wheel, then does the powdercoat place then rebalance and align the wheels?

You will most likely have to have the tires removed before you go over there. Most powdercoating places are not set up to do that kind of stuff.

sounds like a pain in the ___ doing all that then having to go somewhere to get the tires remounted and balanced
