Heat sensitive powder?

[DPancoast]

Hey Martin.

My gf has been talking about getting her meshies refinished on her integra. she was talking about painting them and says there's some kind of heat sensitive paint,

She wants the wheels to be white, but when they warm up, turn blue.

obviously the whole wheel wouldnt change but hopefully you understand what Im talking about.

is it possible to do something like this with powdercoating? and if so, how much does it usually cost (wheels are 15")

idk how well that would work, but i could see a process like this being more effective for rims i dont see having extreme temp changes to "warm" up

hmmmm good question i have not seen any powder that can do this yet but ill ask a few of my vendors and see if they know of anything like this, I do know that there is a paint called eclipse that turns from blue to white with the slightest bit of temp change.

interesting. i'll have to check it out. if you do find one of your vendors carries such a thing, let me know! I'd love to be a guinea pig
