Wheels back from powder coaters. Reasonably happy with the result for the price paid. The masking was a bit hit and miss but nothing the Dremel and a Stanley blade couldn't sort out. I can see that it's difficult to keep the masking in place to cover the vertical lip that locates the disc. I've an idea that dedicated bike powder places have plugs that push into the threaded hole, and have a shoulder moulded on them which masks the area around the hole and the lip.
I've ordered tyres from Oponeo, never used them before, sticking with the Roadtec 01's. All being well the bike should be back on its wheels by the end of the week.
