What are you planning on powder coating? If it's wheels, be careful with the temps they use or you can compromise the integrity of the wheel strength.

Stupid question maybe ..... what makes a good powder coat company?

I have a local place that does a lot of custom bike and sled parts that I was going to have my valve covers done. Their work looks good to me, but what do I know.

My buddy also does powdercoating, I should ask him....I imagine its the same as painting; all about the prep and cleanliness, and of course not getting it places you don't want it

Just dropped off a motorcycle rim & lower ferring at Fireball, have heard they do exceptional work at a very reasonable price, waiting to see the results. Talk to Mark at Fireball.

How did the parts turn out? Also, does anyone know if parts that are coated with a flat paint are any more difficult to clean?
