NickyPap Posted January 26, 2004 Report Posted January 26, 2004 I plan on gettin' ac pro peg nerfs and trashin' these so I figured Why not. Wish I had a pic before, they were scratched up and beginning to rust. Simply sand, clean (deglosser) and paint with 'Hammerite' hammered metal finish. I think it's ok for the time being. Quote
Nighty Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 Would that stuff be suitable for on a pipe? Quote
dnhyoung Posted January 31, 2004 Report Posted January 31, 2004 It's not near as quick and easy, but I attacked my heel guards with the Die grinder and shaved the ears off, then had them powdercoated. Just got them back yesterday.... Quote

Absolutely no offense intended, but they look like the stock paint to me, however new condition. Quote
locogato11283 Posted February 1, 2004 Report Posted February 1, 2004 dnhyoung, you wont regret having the powdercoated. i had mine done about 5 months ago and they are holding up great. they get all kinds of abuse and have just a few small scratches on them. well worth the money. Quote
NickyPap Posted February 1, 2004 Author Report Posted February 1, 2004 Hey Sredish, I wouldn't lie to you guys. NIGHTY: I wouldn't recommend it on your pipes, check into some high heat paints. Dnhyoung: really nice job, If I did that I'd def. keep 'em on. Quote
dnhyoung Posted February 1, 2004 Report Posted February 1, 2004 Would that stuff be suitable for on a pipe? If you want that look, then I would get them ceramic coated.. Quote
Nighty Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 Thanks dnhyoung! Ill see if i can find a company who does ceramic coating. What kind of shop does these kind of jobs? Quote
dnhyoung Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 some powder coating shops do it, but don't let them fool you with saying that they use high temp powder coating, it's totally different, it's actually a glass based coating that applies like powder coating. you can read more about it here: http://www.nicindustries.com/ Quote
sredish Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 Hey Sredish, I wouldn't lie to you guys. Hey man, I didn't mean that I thought you were lying, I just meant that paint looks a lot like the stock piant, the hammered finish is pretty cool. Quote

No feelings were ever hurt here, I was just bored and felt like doing something silly w/ my camera. Quote
