I have the ZCP 359 wheels and want to powder coat them an anthracite type color. How do I remove the small M emblems? How do I then reattach the M emblems after coating?

Also, since the 359 wheels aren't forged, I don't need to worry about the heat of powder coating weakening the metal?

No, you won't change the structure of the wheel by baking it for under an hour. It'll be just fine.

I would suggest softening the adhesive by holding a heat gun or hair dryer near it first.

If you ruin it during removal, the stickers themselves are fairly cheap.
