Powder coating is nothing more than the name- a coating. The smoothness 
would have to come from good prep just like for regular paint. The thin 
coating will go over the top of any bumps and blistering and likely 
highlight them just like a coat of new paint. May have to start all over and 
have the wheels blasted, dipped or something.
