Default Teflon wheel coating

Does anybody know of a shop or DIY way to Teflon coat the wheels? In Europe all the reconditioned wheels are Teflon coated and they look like glass. Just look at the wheels for sale by Teile Parts. Thanks! Kevin

Teflon is a trade name, it's simply called hardcoat anodizing in the US and any shop that does anodizing can do it. It's just anodizing with some ptfe thrown in the mix.

I found a clear DIY ceramic wheel coating kit. It was like Bobby's or Andrew's ceramic wheel coating. They made a ton of products

Yeah I'm thinking about buying a basic powder coater from Eastwood. I hope my oven is big enough for a wheel to fit inside

I have. I'm just messing around. But they do have to go through a couple heat cycles that only an oven can provide
