Looking to get the engine tin powdercoated. What is a fair price? Had one estimate, seemed really big to me. I realize this will vary from here to there, but what have others paid for this service?
Anyone have any good references for the mpls/st paul MN area? Dave |

Consider spray painting? I did mine with high temp paint and they still look great after being installed/handled and 9 months later.

QUOTE(patssle @ Mar 27 2015, 10:47 PM)  Consider spray painting? I did mine with high temp paint and they still look great after being installed/handled and 9 months later. Agree. I did mine using Eastwood Extreme Chasis Black primer and paint (after blasting the parts to bare metal). Beat the heck out of one piece when refitting it and not so much as a scratch or a chip. |
