Re: [DML] Powder Coating?

Scott,

I had my frame powdercoated at a place near me on long island. The 
price was relatively cheap....$850, now that includes sandblasting the old 
epoxy off (the guy who did it said that it was a b*tch to do) and to 
powdercoat the frame, trailing arms, front suspension parts, and some rear 
suspension parts and also delivering it back to me. Before they blasted the 
trailing arms, we tried to match the original epoxy color, and the color that 
we found was called "Cal Grey" but when the frame was all done, the color 
came out a little lighter then the original color, but I am happy with how it 
came out. I had them do the frame and the trailing arms in that cal grey 
color. Then I had them do all the suspension parts in black wrinkle, which 
all I can say is that they came out great! I would highly recommend them 
again if anyone else in the ny/long island area wants to have any parts 
powdercoated (contact me for info) They said that they tried their best in 
getting all the hidden parts of the frame, I think the powdercoat goes on the 
frame bare. The night before they powdercoated the frame, the sandblaster 
had dropped it off, and I saw it when it was a bare frame, they didn't say 
anything about putting something on it to prep it. Hope that helps. If 
anyone has any more questions please e-mail me directly. Thanks!

Later,
Nick
