whats up with your powder coating place? how much to do a mototrcycle frame black?

 

$13 bucks. today's special!

 

how much for 16" aluminum car wheels also? a set of 4

 

600rr swingarm coated black?(flat please)

 

Whats up guys? My large oven (8X8) is back-ordered for another 3 weeks. I have a smaller oven I can do smaller items in (under 22"). My "middle" sized oven should be in this week (4 footer). Plus I just ordered "curing lights" for really large items that I can use if need be.

The frame (if you can wait) I can do for about $250. That's a hundred dollars off a local powder coating shop's price (www.prismpowderusa.com) in Wareham.

The 16" wheels I can do for about $55 each or $200 for the set (provided you want a "stock color" ie: black, red, blue, yellow, orange, white, silver, "chrome", etc. Any transparant, metallic, or candy colors are a two stage process, and cost a little more.

And the 600RR swingarm would be about $70.

All my prices reflect all prep and cleaning. I degrease, media blast, wash, and sand or grind down all items before coating. I can also disassemble anything for a price should someone choose not to do it themselves. I can also pick up and deliver locally in Ma/Ri. I carry about 20-30 colors on hand and can get over 800 colors within 2 days. Powder coating will cover a lot of inperfections, however I can only guarantee a finish as good as the metal it's going on. In other words, rot, pits, or serious defects will not always come out. For metals with serious pits, warps, etc., I recommend using a textured powdercoat. It's a finish that is raised and lowered in areas that comes out in a wrinkle or vein effect. Anyone feel free to call my shop (508) 759-2142.

 

Oh yeah, I also have clear coat powder coat I can apply over any color or a polished item. And I can do media blasting by itself if anyone just wants that service.

 

good too no for the future man. thanks. and i was thinkin about a gunmetal color if that is available. lemme no

 

That is good to know for future reference, thank you. I was also thinking of a gunmetal color is that is available. Please let me know.

The Engrish on this board is horrendous!

 

why don't you just use a house oven and powdered donuts till the big one comes in?

 

House oven?? haha, thats what I'm doing but SHHHH!!!! ... Don't tell anyone, EPA at my door knocking it down, lol. Plus, very unprofessional


what about powdered donuts? oh yeah, get some for the popos who are gonna be looking for me. :YEAH

 

no the powdered donuts is where you can get the powder to coat things with.

 

can u do like flip flop colors?i was thinking about haveing some stuff done with my engine parts to match my car color which is Mystic paint.... i will also send my buddy your way he is doing all his engine parts Green this winter ....

 

My closest competition (www.prismpowderusa.com) says $120 for a 16" motorcycle wheel. Black Rob says I can do it to a 17"/18"/19" wheel for $85 a wheel in a stock color. Translucents or candies are more .

And yes mystic, I have different colored flip-flop (chameleon), sparkle, translucents, and I can get trick and do fades or two tones . I can also add colored flake to any color you fall in love with. And send you buddy over. I got high temp. powder for engine parts.


*** Keep in mind these are SL member prices. Trying to hook you guys up cuz your like family. I'd probably charge some random guy that came to my shop on a Harley $100 a wheel***

 

How come you can do a whole wheel for $55.00 and you want $15.00 a piece for my little bar ends and preload adjusters I must be 1 of those random guys

 

Hey man, whats up? I told you $10-15 cuz I really couldn't see them well enough to judge them on the website. Plus you told me some were already chromed and needed to be stripped, which can be a b*tch. Just by looking at them online (which doesn't give me a good depth or size to go by) I figured $10 if I had to strip, prep, and powder something smaller (gun "chamber" or revolver-sized). If it was a larger than that "gun size" I figured $15 tops. You said it wasn't really cost effective for you at $10-15 for your prices. If you put a (+20 or +25) for powdercoating like you do chrome or anodizing and charge it to your customers then it is. I don't want to tell you how to run your business, and I understand everyone wants to make a buck and you want to make them most you can. I tried giving you a "client" price. If someone came to me to get a set of those done, I'd probably say $20. Not because I want to be a *****, but theres a point where I need to make money for my time and labor. I can't give things away. I try to help out friends and family. I also try to make things affordable. I don't want to rape anyone on prices. That's not me. As you can see, I'll do a frame for like $250. I don't know of another PCing business that can touch that. Thats damn near my cost to do it. Figure running a 8x8x8 oven for an hour or two to bake it. Plus powder costs, degreaser, and electricity for the compressor to run for the 2 hours it'll take me to glass bead the frame. Then the wipe down with "prepping solution". It gets expensive. The local PCing place is $350 without the subframe. See, I want customers to be happy and come back. I can do a rim for $55 cuz it's a 16" car wheel (one-sided to coat, and pretty easy to sandblast). So you see, it's really not cost effective if I get a pair of those a week or whatever to do them for under $10. To stop other work or put yours in front of a $250 job isn't worth it to me. After all is said and done, I might make a dollar off that. Anything less and I pay for it to get done, which I can't do. You claimed to have a guy that want's to do them for $5 and another guy for $3. I think thats awesome. Frankly, I wish I knew them because I'd hire them to do all my work and charge my prices for it, lol/jk. . But seriously, I wanted to do it for ya. If $10 is ok, we can work something. I'd really like to do your work. I don't know what kind of volume your working with, but I don't really care. I'm all about customer service. No hard feelings either way you choose. I think your a cool guy and I like your products. It's nothing personal but thats the truth. I quit my job and put my life savings into this. I can't afford to pay out of my pocket to make it free to someone else. Gimme a call or something.

 

read the post fool 10X1000=10,000 thats a lot of money.if i just wanted a couple it wouldnt be an issue.rob approached me saying he would beat any price ,and he cant .I understand your just getting started but dont say you can beat any competitors price when you dont know if you can. you cant even come close!
thats shitty biz .,no hard feelings

 

why, anodized cost me 50 cents *** powder coat

 

Why all the hostitlity? You never said nor did I ever see a post about 1000 of them. Show me where, cuz I never saw it. I'm being honest, not trying to be a dick or have "bad business" as you call it. I explained the situation as it was presented to me. Even over the phone you said you had a "couple that you already chromed, that need to be pc'ed in black". If your talking 1000, that I'll have in my hand to do, of course I can match it; at least! I was under the impression that I was to do a few of them. I even said "gimme a couple that I'll do them for free to show you the quality and finish". Thats good business in my book. I never flat out said "no way", or treated you like sh*t or anything. If it's quantity then we can work it out. I don't know your business, and how much you make/sell. I figured it was a couple here and there. As they were purchased I would do them, a few a week. So if you got no problems or issues with "my work ethic" , gimme a call. If theres a quantity I can do them real cheap. It's my fault for not asking the volume you have. I apoligize for that. Let's talk, we can work it out.

 

I need some one who can handle all my finishing needs chrome ,powder coat and so on .SICKSHOOTER is a business not a hobbie

 

I'm buying a small chrome kit and an anodizing kit as well. I don't know how good they'll work, but I'll try. When I get them I'll do a couple for ya, see if the finish is as good as what your getting now. I'll also do polishing. I can't put chrome tanks in here, the town won't let me. I tried. Bourne f*cking blows . But now that the inspections are done I can do small plating with the smaller kits. I do have chrome and mirror silver powdercoat
