couple of things i am on with
hunterdubber:
Just to show people the difference
I first tried to get my frame done , a transparent powder , but it was a total disaster , a big waste of money
heres some pics before I had to get it totally stripped again, (more expense as I had to get it professionally done )
You can see the original HLT colour still on the head tube steerer , not like you need that to show you how far this finished colour is out :crazy2:
I was gutted to say the least :'(
Then found Neil was THE only person to deal with
With all the powdering ,stripping , painting, and numerous posting to and from places this frameset's finish stands me at around £300 :shocked:
But since I got it back on Tuesday , like I said before NOW the result, is the best money I've spent doing this hobby :daumenhoch:

CHRISTAIN i spent over £120 buying some so called harrry leary smoked powder from c4 labs . to find out it was nearly the same as your blue powder lacquer that was 1st on your frame . i am not slagging c4 labs as they are amazing with paint and powder but what they sent me was poo poo :daumenhoch:
