POWDERCOATING ISSUES IN SCOTLAND - HELP!?

<< < (3/4) > >>

theRuler:
where i go if you want a colour other than the contracts they are doing, then its a 70 quid setup fee + plus extra for the powder

so its cheap for base colours, but no good for others.

the yellow they do is nice. and i had a chrome plated frame done in white and it looks superb

i am currently prepping a frame to have done in blue so i will see how that one comes out.

adeshere:
What do you exactly mean by 'preping'

what do you have to do to a chrome frame before sending it off to get painted ?

theRuler:
if you want to powder coat a chrome frame, just make sure its clean

the powder goes fine on chrome plate. dont fook about getting it stripped

adeshere:
This is what i've been quoted to do a chrome F&F


£35 inclusive of VAT to grit blast and then paint in white

theRuler:
thats a good price

but if the chrome is ok then leave it on.
it does not need to come off

powdercoat goes over anything. paint, chrome, rust - just make sure it is as flat as you can get it, and is degreased.
