Paint or powdercoat

<< < (2/2)

meticulous:
ive seen powder coat flake off after a couple of years outside, as on some gates and railings, but if it was shot blasted first it would last ta least 15 years, we use to gaurantee it for 10 years, i know your bike wont be stood outside but shows that it doesnt last as long if you dont key the frame first, even more so for 2 pack paints, it will just flake off when you tighten the wheel nuts, :shocked:

reyn:
Got the same frame in chrome already so thought I'd do this frame thats scratched in black powdercoat and do the bike as a reverse of the chrome bike......if you see what I mean........ ;)

gutee  :Aresehole: you know what I mean matey......  ;) You started on the other bike yet??????

reyn:
So who's had a frame powdercoated?. How scratched can a frame be before the powdercoat starts to show these scratches through????

Anyone got any pics of before and after of poor frames transformed by powdercoat?
