Happy to pay what they're worth and you can sleep well they'll be going to a loving home and regularly filled with overproofed concoctions

Long story short: local shop sorta fucked me. I need someone to coat one 13" wheel. I'm located in eugene oregon but travel up and down I5 for work so I could come to you. I'll provide the powder. Willing to pay a reasonable price.

Short story long: there's a shop locally I've used several times and they've done good work at a fair price. I recently brought them 2 wheels to coat along with 2lbs of powder which should have been more than enough. When I dropped them off the guy told me the machine usually needs a minimum of 5lbs of powder to work. This was strange as they had done a small caliper for me previously and I brought them a half pound of powder and they didn't mention a thing. He said he can try and make it work. Fast forward a few days and I pick up the wheels. When I get home I notice there's a decent sized blemish on the front wheel. My mistake for not seeing it when I picked them up. I sent a picture to the owner and he called me immediately to say drop the wheel back off to have it redone. I asked him if there was enough powder to redo the wheel and he said yes. I drop it off and get a call the next day saying I need to bring 2lbs of powder. I ask what happened to the left overs and was told they're aren't any. I say they either need to buy the powder and fix their mistake or I'll come pick up the wheel and asked for half my money back. The owner is clearly annoyed but agrees to half my money back. I go to pick up the wheel and they've not only sanded off the blemished part but lightly took a sander to the whole wheel to make it look like total shit. The other powdercoating shops in the area have $200 minimums. Can anyone coat this for me if I provide the powder? Willing to pay a reasonable price.

Thanks for hearing my rant
