Hmmm, it seems we may be discussing different finishes/products, the powder coating that I have encountered both in the UK and in NZ has been a plastic type material, it is softer than paint and prone to damage and peeling, stove enamelling, which I believe was the original finish, is different and extremely durable. Rory I trust and respect your opinion but as I have said the powder coating I have experienced has been a plasticky finish which neither looks right nor particularly durable, it is not a hard finish like paint or stoving. I should add that I have used four different companies over the years, all have been powder coaters not stove enamelers, and although some have been better than others all have the failings I describe. I wonder if you have been getting wheels stove enamelled rather than powder coated?
