ironhead Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 got my frame back from the powder coater and im not happy ! he used touch up paint on the 2 lower motor mount tabs and one other spot in the front end were 2 pieces vee together,pluse there are spots that range from a needle point to a pin head that are random around the frame.its like the powder didnt flow together in thease spots .the frame had a 2 coat job first a mimirrored silver then a trasparent blue over it . am i being to picky or did i get a shitty job?he said that the powder would not stick in those parts becase somtimes u can get a negative field at sertain points ,like trying to push to maggnets togather, so thats y he had to touch it up with paint .has any one ever gotten anthing coated and had pint on it ? thanks !

ironhead Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 well i took it back today and showed him how bad it looked ,he saig he could resray over it to cover it up but that would make it darker .so i talked him down on the price, paid half price and told him i would live with it.he said he had never had any problem like that before with the pitting ,he thinks that maybe his filter screwed up or some dirt got on it some how. well now its time too start putting it back together thanks for the help gyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
