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 |

Powdercoating isn't that hard to master (check Youtube). You can get started for well under $200. It is far more durable than regular paint, plus you will have the satisfaction of mastering another great way to keep your car looking sharp!
I purchased a $40 Craftsman powdercoat gun, a used $60 oven, and already had a drill with wire brushes to clean the parts. I use Eastwood powdercoating 'paint' and have been very satisfied with the results. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
