ETR174 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Report Posted January 1, 2015 Aight I went on fb and asked Quality Powder Coat for an estimate. Ill call Exotic tomorrow if they are open for an estimate. I will see about it with me prepping it to save a lot of money. Quote
ETR174 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Report Posted January 1, 2015 I paid about 120 bucks from a local powder coating shop for my frame and T bar. Just depends on who does your work. Its white so no custom powder. This sounds pretty good. I'm mostly worried on just the frame for now. I'll get the a arms and swingarm and carrier done later. Quote
vrx46 Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 I get all my work done for free suckers all I have to do is drop it off and pick it up. I have always wondered about prices tho. Quote

ETR174 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Report Posted January 1, 2015 I got a hold of Brian on fb and am talking to him now. Quote
ETR174 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Report Posted January 1, 2015 Holy shit this Brian guys sounds cool. He said that I will have to choose a specific purple color but a ballpark estimate will be around $90 for a single coat + however much for prepping but to call him tomorrow for more details. Quote

Whoa whoa, I'm the purple banshee guy around here. Find another color Quote
bigweav81 Posted January 3, 2015 Report Posted January 3, 2015 Heres a thought. The money your going to put in powdercoating, just spend it on plastic, and matching rims, and tires. The purple is faded to damn near grey so it matches your frame. Im not saying it looks like shit............just shitty looking. Quote

I want to keep the original plastics so I'm going to wait when I have the money and have it powder coated silver or a faded purple color Quote
hoppedupandcutdown Posted January 3, 2015 Report Posted January 3, 2015 For now, Krylon 1403 spray can paint will spot in and blend perfectly with the original color. If you mask whatever isn't silver you can touch-up with it the spot will be un-noticable. I like to use tin foil and some tape to mask with since it conforms and stays put and out of your way. 2 Quote
