Andrew, How much did the powder coating cost you? I am looking at my project and its basically a motor and frame right now, so it might be a good time to do that. Cheers, phil |

I talked to a local guy yesterday and he inferred that it would cost between $300 - $600 to my frame. That includeds a bead blast to remove all the paint, primer, color coat , and clear coat on top. He wouldn't quote me over the phone. I have to bring it in to him. Cheers, Phil. |

That seems expensive Phil.I had one guy here who quoted high like that but he was a specialist restorer and quoted like one.I checked out S.F. and you have a lot of powder coaters to choose from so I would be getting some more quoted.I'm not sure why it needs to be primed and cleared though. From Wikipedia- The powder coating process involves three basic steps: 1-Part preparation or the pre-treatment 2-The powder application 3-Curing From my understanding this is all they do,blast,coat and cure.I chose my powder coater because a mate has had 6 frames done by him and he's picky about his bikes (now that I've said that it will probably turn out crap ![]() ![]() Cheers Andrew |

Yeah, for that price, I'm thinking a regular painter is a lot cheaper. or I can buy a lot of really nice rattle cans for that. Cheers, Phil |

Its for bead blasting, primer coat, color coat, and clear coat. Is the Sport frame powder coated form the factory, or is it wet paint? Cheers, Phil |
