[kenny007]

what is the average cost of getting a frame powder coated?

i had shake industries do mine. they did 2 heavy ass coats and a clear. they dont usually do atv frames but my dad is good friends with the guy who runs it. he only had me pay labor which was $60

Where are you located? Someone for sure will be able to point you to a good company in your area.

wow! that looks sick nice job. Yeah Im the chicago area. Not sure if I want to go with a jet black but now I see zillafreak's bike and Im having second thoughts. Zillafreak is the bike completed and put back together, do you have a pic?

Prismatic powders is another good site to check out. You would be amazed with the colors people come up with.

I appreciate it guys. Nice bike zillafreak. What's the name of that color?

If you are in Chicago check out LoCo and Gorrila coating out south. Had them both coat stuff and it came out awesome. A lot of color choices including metallics. Gorilla did one banshee frame for a local guy nice metallic red like the yfz450r for $150 he told me. Came out great.

When you powder coat your frame do you have to remove powder coating where you would have a ground like under the coil?

[Rustynail]

It does need a clean ground...usually clean threads where it screws on are sufficient

[Mootsman]

If you do need to remove some powder coating, use a q-tip dipped in acetone and it well melt the powder off the metal.

 

I find this method easier to control than sanding it off.

i had a place in PA do mine.

 

2 layers of Floresant Neon Yellow, and blasted for 200

its good to clean off to metal the coil adn all other grounds on the frame. also chase ALL the threads becore you put it back together. i use plugs in the holes to try adn help with that. mostly the heating causes some issues with the threads also.

 

i charge 250-350 depending on prep i have to do and color choices.

 

those flop colors are bad ass! you can also layer colors as long as they are a translucent, clear flake or candy type. dual layering solids is a waste of time.

The guys that did my pc put silicone in all the small threads and plugged the big ones. I didn't have to chase a single hole. They also did the frame and swingarm for under $300.
