MR Clean in Padstow do blasting and powder coating. Blasting per wheel $35, Blast + powder coat was $55 (This was about 2 years ago so prices may have changed).
They are located in Gow St in Padstow, 2 minute drive from M5 fairford rd exit.

Wish I knew one in Campbelltown though ...

Condition wise, doesn't matter if blasting. The wheels had terrible surface rust and about 5 layers of paint. Really it would have been a PITA to clean up by hand, that's how bad they were.

well found out that the guy we use for work wants about $160 a rim ,thats blasted ,primed and 2 coats of powder coating ,or if your rim is clean enough(sanded back and smooth) about $70 a rim for just one coat of powder coating
