Powder coaters in West Midlands area?

(1/2) > >>

hi,

i'm new to the site and could do with some pointers please.

i need to find a decent powder coating company in the west mid's area to repaint a redline mx-11 frame i've just aquired.

i also need some advice on how to remove a snapped and stuck seatpost from the seat tube.

is heating up the seat tube the best way?

trying to relive my youth, but could not resist the redline (even with a stuck post) as i had one new in the early 80's.

thanks.

Theres a powder coaters that i use in Wolves called Speedway Paint. Its right by the speedway track. Neil is the guy you need to speak to.
Hope this helps, Jez.

gaf16:
thanks for the info.

the price they have quoted me seems very good.

whats they quality of finish like?

dordymush:
yeah i would like to know how it came out to. how much was the quote for a frame & forks ?.

gaf16:
they quoted me £60 to shot blast, prep and powder coat 2 sets of frames & forks in white.

sounds like a bargain to me, but just want to check on finish quality before going ahead.

it won't be cheap if it's so poor they need doing again.
