chase73 Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 I have a guy here in mass that is going to powdercoat my frame for me for $100 if I strip frame and supply the powder I want. He said he will put it on as thick as I want so I am going to do it a little extra . Powder can be purchased via eastwood powder the guy said it would take around 3 pounds of powder to paint frame I am going to use 4-5 pounds That will cost me 50 bucks and its any color I want and they have some cool ass colors. So in total I will spend 150 for a great job and if I am lazy and dont want to strip bike thats another 50 bucks but , i am stripping it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb67rs1 Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 for 3 lbs of powder i can coat 15 bikes 3 times each. damn what the hell are you thinking. also with power the more you coat it the more brittle it becomes, so you might want to re think the whole thing. plus is he keeping the extra powder left over? if so you are buying him 5 lbs of powder and he might use 10 oz! just watching out for ya. 100 bucks is cheap , but you dont have to spend so much on powder!

chase73 Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 LOL dude I powdercoat all my small parts myself and he was guesstamating when he said 3 pounds of powder but , I know I could easily use 2 pounds on a frame you do understand that half the powder dont even stick to part right ???and the extra I am getting its cheaper for powder the more u buy I cant see how a thicker coat of powder coat would make it brittle ??? the only thing that makes powder coat brittle is over bake the parts or under bake. The guy also told me he would give back any extra because it was mine I also plan on watching it get done I wanted to see how they do it if there is anything I am missing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
