Post by voodookid37 » 10 Mar 2011, 22:46

thinking or ripping the old fella apart and getting the frame and brackets powder coated...

now i have a guy up here that does a good job, but sometimes its just a bit too thick and industrial...

who out there are the rated "coaters"......please include,finish,turn around time etc .

i,m looking at a finish as near as possible to mk1 red......... :D

your thoughts please lads and lassies.... :P

have a look at city powder coaters. my bro and a few mates have use them for cars wheels 20 popund each and they were mint. there are a few bad comments on net about them but way overided by all the excellent feedback. for a bike frame dipped sandblasted and coated is £50 wheels 20 and things like swingarm £5 they do all parts and in many colours. check them out at http://www.citypowdercoating.co.uk/ hope this can help :) oh and they dropped the wheels of 1 weekend and picked up next as was far away. but it takes a couple of days.
