the orange powder I got off ebay real cheep. nothing real nice I had just planed to do **** that was gonna get fucked up like healguards and levers. It held up realy well and didnt wear or chip off. so I ended up using it on alot of stuff.. I need to get a picture of the sprocket Its nasty lookin. but for the header I got real nice **** from http://www.caswellplating.com/ . They have realy nice highend ****.. even crome.. I have a propane tank with the cromepowder on it for 4 years now and never new it was powder tell recently. ***** nasty. so yeah check it out.

 

honestly, how much is powder coating compared to doing it yourself.

include the time it takes you to do it, and the quality of the job.

my wheels are ******* edible and it was nothing to get my tires uninstalled stripped, coated, and put back together and installed.

60 Bucks bro.. And I install appliances so I got old ovens for days.. so yeah 60 bucks and a week to get the 16$ worth I spent on orange and 32$ I spent on black.

 

Im familiar with Caswell... I was gonna buy one of their triple chrome plating kits a few years ago but i was informed that it was junk..... they do have some nice goodies! Columbia Coatings sells ceramic for exhausts, I tried the chrome stuff.... came out great, but there is alot of prep work and after they are baked they need to be bead blasted and then rubbed with polish and fine steel wool to get the shine.

If you can pull off a budget powder job, props to ya! It can be tough!

 

well budget and stunt bike are 2 different things. If I wasent coating **** on a stunt bike I would probly have got nicer **** to start with,but the coatings im producting are flawless. . my harborfreight gun and late 80's Tappan oven could coat **** for a showcar. I recomend this **** for everyone that has cool toys and spends lots of time drinkin beers in the garage.. the possibilities are endless.I coated my most used bike tools for quick work. simple cool **** like that makes it worth it. remember this **** last forever and never chips or cracks. Im about to do my rear spring when weather gets real bad or when i find an easy way to take it of the shock.. anybody done that before?

 

DIGG... That looks sick. How the hell do they get that finish? Is that textured?

 

looks like a silver vein powder with candy red topcoat.
