powder

I was quoted $75 to do 2 Heald wheels that are clean as a whistle. I see $80 powder coat systems on eBay .. electric ovens are cheap on CL. Thoughts?

I figured out a quick, easy way to remove powder coating, kinda accidentally. Most powder coat is polyester and is impervious to gasoline and other solvents, and it is sorta soft and sanding and blasting won't cut it very fast like it does on paint. But it can be dissolved by acetone and and...

Let the fun begin! It is going to finish up as an inverse kind of Doppelganger to my red "Rapido Diablo" DB30. Hang in there for more build pictures..... http://www.oldminibikes.com/forum/vbrides.php?do=viewride&rideid=280#.WKoQe28rKUk

Trying to decide between the two. I can get everything powder coated for about $100 or I can strip, sand and paint for probably half that. I don't plan on taking it off road except for the yard. What does everyone prefer when redoing a mini bike?

Hey all. Curious if anyone has some insight on the topic. We are at the point where we need to either paint or Powder Coat the frame and wheels. Does anyone have experience with both? We are unsure which way to go! We have a Bad Dog Gigantic frame that needs painting. I think we will just...

Anyone have a price on what it cost to powder coat a doodlebug frame in your neck of the woods? Never powder coated anything so no idea is this is just more dreaming on my part and a poor use of my dollars. Would be dam nice looking that is for sure.

Does anyone know how others have powder coated the forks and still be able to get the springs and the lower forks on, I have had to remove the powder coat as it is to thick to install springs, I have seen many purple t100s with purple under the springs. I need some ideas. Thanks

Does anybody have an answer to how others have had the forks powder coated and we're still able to install springs and lower fork ends, I had to remove the powder coat just to get the springs on! I have seen many purple t100s with purple forks under the springs. Just don't have any ideas. Thanks

So, can it be done? I have seen some on this forum. Will it last? What temps do the predators engines get up to? I sent a email and got this reply: I would have to say we are going to have to pass on this unfortunately due to a few issues. The first being the extensive masking that is...

I am in need of an old style shroud/blower housing that has the 4 studs for mounting the recoil. I am kinda picky and need it to be in pristine condition. I have a powder coated, dented one I can trade and a brand new late model unit complete with round recoil, and of course, there is cash...

Just a new member, found this thing basically in pieces, rusted to hell! Today I finished the ruff part of it & got it running on the street! Next will be powder coating and paint. Curious to what year this could be?

I'm going to start a rebuild on a 1500sh soon ? And I will be relying on some input from fellow OldMiniBikes member's on tech info since there's not a lot of treads on this model ? 1st I want too tear it apart and clean everything and do a repaint or powder coat like BC Dave's bogus build and use the...
