BansheeRider576 Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 i just got a TM design works chain slider which i plan to replce my tock one that got eaten away in only a year.... i have to drop my swing arm in order to do this however and figured i would havemy swng arm painted red.... I spray painted my hubs red and they held up great except for a few chips from when i was changing my bearings... What would you recommend for my swing arm?.. should i spray paint it or should i waist the ime and money to have it powdercoated???...... Quote
locogato11283 Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 for the money it will cost you id say go forthe powdercoating. ity cant cost that much. around here you can get your whole frame done for about 150 bucks. powdercoating holds up so much better than spray paint its not even funny. i would go for the powdercoating. you wont regret it.

BansheeRider576 Posted January 10, 2004 Author Report Posted January 10, 2004 150 bucks for the whole frame... does that include stripping off the orignal powder coating;..... i heard it cost like 450 to have your frame done....... i think im going to just put my chain slider on and powdercoat it in the summer then.... Today it is 10 below at my house and i don't have a garage so you could only image what it is like to be working on your quad... I live in MASSACHUSETTS does any one know of some cheap places to have powdercoating done??.... Quote

locogato11283 Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 yea thats everything. actually i think it was 125 to powdercoat it and 25 or 30 to have it sandblasted. powdercoating is really reasonable because the guy here works out of his garage. he usually does work for ppl he knows and rides with.

raxen Posted January 10, 2004 Report Posted January 10, 2004 Powdercaoting for the durability although the sheen leaves something to be desired. Powdercoat it if you plan to get rough and wild on your shee. If you just like to look at it, then spray some house of kolors kandy on it. Quote
raxen Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 If you need powdercoating and want a decent job. Remember shipping is cheap, even a frame ships for 30 one-way with Greyhound. Email Jason, he powdercoats very well and has quick turnaround. [email protected] Quote
