Powdercoating Frenzy Well I pulled everything off my motor and I'm either having each piece plated, powdercoated, polished or painted. Here are some of the parts I got back already.

Re: Powdercoating Frenzy Very nice.. as they say "paint it, plate it or polish it" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Powder painting if very affordable if done in large batches and the results can be very nice.. My next project is to figure out how to do something with my water pump..
Keep us updated on the progress and be sure to post when its all back together!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Powdercoating Frenzy anyone ever looked into the powder coating kits offed for around 150 or 200?
I did a search a week or so ago on them and anodizing kits...
i would think the powder coating would be easy with small objects...
