Help on powdercoating needed

<< < (2/2)

Nosnod:
Ad, when you say remove the paint from inside the tubes do you mean in the BB and headtube??

aditup:
I would say, yes. As I have had at least 2 which have "bled" through from the inside. Obviously, if the frame was, lets say, red before, then you powder it black, then it will not bleed thru, but if it was red, then you powder it white (which I have done twice), Then it does bleed thru. Just my experience. Like I said before, prep is the main thing, if you got it to do again, then its a right pain in the 4ss. Ad

my coaters blast and dip every frame i give then so its clean and prepped ready for powder .so i dont have to take decals or owt off .he charges around 30/40 depending on colour for frame and forks .i think thats reasonable .inc stripping and everything .

he hates doing chrome as the chrome he says should be stripped to powder it and when he blasts it all the chrome doesnt come off .hence he doesnt like doing them.

i juust take the stickers off and take it in, they prepare it for the same price, one thing you must must do is degrease it dude, get it all off every bit or will be sorry
