powdercoating handlebars question

#1
Question to anyone who has powdercoated handlebars.....

Does the thickness of the powdercoat interfere with the throttle assembly from sliding and rotating smoothly on the handlebar?

I have a used throttle that I was test fitting on some chrome bars and they slide smooth. On some enamel painted bars, not as smooth but still ok. If I powdercoat, what can I expect?

there should be zero issues if its done correctly. I do tons of bars for the various dealerships around here, no issues with fit of throttle.
but that being said, it will indeed go on fat if the coater flocks hot, there will be to much buildup and then some cussing on your end when you try it later.
