While this may be true, I just don't have an extra $600 I
can plunk down for wheels at the moment.  :(

Realistically, what I'll likely do is make a lot of use of
the blast cabinet and powdercoat oven when the time comes. 
I don't think I can find a Paprika Red in powder, but I can
get it in a conventional paint and then use a clear powder
over top which should work very nicely.

Yes it's more work but I'll save a lot of that $600...
