Powder coating services
 

Hey guys, I finally invested in a powder coating setup, so if you want anything done let me know what, and what color, and I'll send you a qoute. I'm in the Minneapolis area, which would save shipping, I can get a ton of colors, most of which will soon be in stock. Hit me up and I'll give you a price about half of the cheapest place around here. Like $100 for a set of rims, $150 demounted, remounted and rebalanced.

How about my whole car? Just kidding, but I may invest in your services in the near future. Thanks for the heads up.

Actually if I pick up an infared heat lamp, we could technically powder coat a car, I was thinking of doing mine in chrome...

also you really couldn't powdercoat a car, for one, the powder coat really isn't too flexible, also imagine stripping it completely down to nothing

sorry, didn't mean to come off as a prick, i just think since this is a diy site, why not find a free electric oven in the classifieds and buy your own, for 100 i was completely doing powdercoating myself, no need to pay tons of money or wait 3 weeks for a part, i even have a sand blaster (btw this is a MUST if you want to get into business), can't wait until i get to redo the suspension on my car, everything is getting done in nice gloss black.... well i take that back, i can wait heh.... but seriously i had 4 wheels coated for like 10 bucks in powder

Yeah, it was a joke, but seriously this stuff is fun. We did my buddies intercooler piping last night with a silver base and translucent blue on top, and it looks awesome.

For the valve cover, $25 included prep, if it's stripped, $15. I hate prepping work, it takes a lot of time to do it right.

whats really fun is doing odd stuff to things, i removed the "HONDA MOTOR CO." writing from my d16a6 valve cover, i think it looks pretty cool now, and yeah prepping work sucks ass. my advice for you, buy the largest blast cabinent you can, none of that 100 stuff, like spend 2-400 and get a decent sized one. you'll then have the ability to produce things quicker, and you can use the right blast media so it doesn't come off the blaster really rough... that leads to bubbles and pin holes in the final product. also, throw the parts in the oven for like 10 minutes, let it cool for about 5 and then spray on the powder, seems to work easier for me to get it in the tight to reach places.
