Hell yeah i powdercoat.

[Clutch]

I have all the pieces now, anybody need anything powdercoating done, i have the mediablasting booth, ovens, powdercoating guns, welder. My friend is a much better welder than i am and can fabricate something if you need something fabricated.

[MagicHallucinations]

I want my intake manifold polished....

[Clutch]

I have a 50 pound bag of 80 grit glass coming, let me practice polishing one and i'll let you know.

[MagicHallucinations]

sweet!

[fordrule]

can u do rims? or is it not big enough?

[MagicHallucinations]

can u do rims? or is it not big enough?


if his oven is big enough.....knowing Eric it's huge, lol.

[jrak123]

Are you using that home Powder coating kit from Hot Coat?

[Clutch]

No, i'll have to dig up the name of the kit, it's been sitting around a while waiting on my Building to get finished, everythings going to be done in a 24x24 building that i finished up this week. Yes i can do rims, the ovens i got can do those. Thats the main reason i went with a two oven setup so i can do different things at the same time.

[Clutch]

yeah, i might have gone overboard on the ovens, i have a spot for an even bigger one outside of the building if i decide i need to start powdercoating motorcycle frames. I'll pick up a few manifolds this week and get started seeing how they come out, i may have to try a different media to get the effect your going for.

[MagicHallucinations]

ovens>washer and dryer:rofl:

[Clutch]

Shhh, dont tell the fiancee that i didn't buy the washer and dryer. We aren't even living together yet and she wants to buy a washer and dryer for a house we don't even live in and the wedding is 8 months away....they can wait, powdercoating is a necessity for life.

[MagicHallucinations]

i like where your head is at my friend:rofl:

[Clutch]

I'm going to buy some more powder from Eastwood since you brought it up Jrak, I have heard alot of good things about their chrome, alot of chrome powder just doesn't look good but i hear good things about them all the time. Micah, you me, my building....cuddle time

[Clutch]

Micah, what is your manifold made out of? Is it aluminum?

[XplosivePlushToy]

I want my car powder coated.

[MagicHallucinations]

Micah, what is your manifold made out of? Is it aluminum?


yeah......

If no polish.....color would be nice. It's just so ugly, lol. I've seen some polished and it looks really good. I could also get someone to port it.....unfortunatly the STi's manifold is the same size so there's no use in buying one of those. The red looks hot though....

[Clutch]

i should still be able to polish it, may take a finer grit to not damage the aluminium.

[Clutch]

I want my car powder coated.

need to get a bigger oven:rofl: but i did just get chrome powder, black, clear powder. red should be on order soon.

[XplosivePlushToy]

OOH! EVEN BETTER!

I wanna be powder coated!

[Clutch]

Sure i can do that *"eric assumes no liability for the fact that human flesh cannot take 400 degrees for 15 minutes"

[Clutch]

Anyone have any particular color requests or anything they would like to see powdercoated?

[jrak123]

Eh, I would stay away from the eastwood stuff. My buddy that has a powdercoat shop said that their stuff isn't very good and it is way more expensive than a much better product you cant get. HE does all the powder coat work for GM racing so I will take his word on that. I will be seeing him again soon when I pick up all my parts from the group buys and I will get some info for you.

[Clutch]

I ordered all my other colors from other suppliers but i have heard good things about their chrome so i picked a 2 pound bag up. We will see if it is any good, if not, only 2 pounds to lose.

[dalaster88]

Hey, I would love my plastic cover over the intake manifold to be chromed out. How much would i be looking at?

[StealthyWeasel]

question for you.

Im looking to getting an aluminized Y pipe from trubendz (blah, they only have aluminized) so could you do a powdercoating thats gonna prevent the damn rust? That would be awesome- thanks.

[Clutch]

Everyone has been Pm'd and i hope i explained myself about the need for metal pretty clearly

[MagicHallucinations]

Eric.....can you powdercoat my left testicle?



:rofl:

[Clutch]

Hell yeah, you can take the heat right?

[dalaster88]

I would say powdercoat my rims, but they are so bent, im getting new ones.

[Clutch]

just hit some more curbs and they will even out. Trust me. There is nothing like curb rash all the way around the lip of a rim too, it's a good textured look.

[MaverickFlyer]

A friend of mine does powder coating. He did my UIM, TB and valve covers. He used the almost chrome. It looked good at first but with time it doesn't look so good. My valve covers were done with a candy Red colour and they still look good when they are clean.

Here is his website, he has a picture of my UIM and Valve covers on there.

[Clutch]

I have heard alot of bad things about the chrome, the only one i have heard good things about is the one i was talking about earlier. The other chromes just dont end up like they should.

[AndyMan]

yeah man..
ur gonna have to look at my rear drums and see what u can do.. :thumbsup:

[Clutch]

I'll be sure to check them out at the next meet. Until then i am going to the junkyard to pull a few things.

[Clutch]

Oh, and if it doesn't turn out. I will redo it or strip it and send you the money. IF it's a mistake and you didn't change your mind.

[MaverickFlyer]

I have heard alot of bad things about the chrome, the only one i have heard good things about is the one i was talking about earlier. The other chromes just dont end up like they should.

Yeah I'm not happy with mine. The first time I did it we didn't clear it. The power coat ended up peeling. the second time we did clear it but it lost that shiny Chrome look.

[Clutch]

All depends on the clear, and if the powder is made for clear or not, also the worst things i have heard about chrome is with lower intake manifold, the heat from the heads makes the chrome peal off.

[AndyMan]

Yeah I'm not happy with mine. The first time I did it we didn't clear it. The power coat ended up peeling. the second time we did clear it but it lost that shiny Chrome look.

:biggrin: people want that shiny look so badly... :rofl: ..
people are willing even to copy ur sig to prove they have it... :disgust:

[Clutch]

including chuck norris....hahaha

[Clutch]

More powders just arrived, thank god for ups

[Clutch]

Anybody have any more colors they would want? Red seems to be popular for suspension parts, not my style but i see it all the time.

I am doing a few sets of wheels and i will try to bring them with me to the meet, if anyone wants to see anything in particular let me know.

[Clutch]

I just got a performance garage around here to have my little company to do all their powdercoating work. It's a good day.

Congrats, that's all you need. Get a few shops sending you work and you're all set. My friend does all the bike frames and parts for a couple shops.

[XplosivePlushToy]

I think I might get my brake calipers PC'd black. Is that possible?

[Kaioshin]

Where is it?

How do you feel about these babys:

http://www.modbargains.com/images/Products/Miro/Miro_Type_346_Silver2.JPG

or

http://www.modbargains.com/images/Products/Miro/M6gunmetal5.JPG

I need them darker or different somehow, would be cool.

[XplosivePlushToy]

I like the first one.

[Kaioshin]

Maybe #1 with the outside spokes darker...like #2 Inverted.....

[Kaioshin]

This is #1 on an e46....mine is facelifted though (newer..minor changes)

http://www.modbargains.com/images/Products/Miro/m6wheelsBMW-keem4.jpg

[Clutch]

I LOVE those wheels, the second one would take alot of taping off and polishing but i could do it. My friend who is one of the R's is handling the garage aspect as we speak, i'll let you know the name as everything is finalized.

I don't know enough about BMW wheels to know what was done to the first one. What are the changes?

[Kaioshin]

Sweet. :thumbsup:

[Kaioshin]

wait what changes?

And where is it!? Belmont?

[Clutch]

xplosive...you got pm. Kaioshin. So the first set is stock right?

[Kaioshin]

Both are replicas. the second ones are closer to stock. The 1st ones are the ones im thinking of..

You think I would let you touch some OEM M6 19s?? :crazy:

[Kaioshin]

ill try a wee photochop to see if it looks ok....

Edit: nevermind....I am reminded again why i dropped out of graphic arts....im a network admin, i just beat hardware into submission untill it complies...

[AndyMan]

hey Kaioshin, u trying to make it to the meet next month? :thumbsup:

[Clutch]

Yeah, anyway you can show me the areas modified i can give you a quote on the work done required to do that part.

[Kaioshin]

Andy...i am trying w/ work, we'll see...

Eric..think of #2 inverted:

http://www.modbargains.com/images/Products/Miro/M6gunmetal5.JPG

The spokes dark and the inside & lip polished/silver

Just quote me for doing the whole rim and we will go from there....

[Clutch]

pm'd the #2 inverted would require alot less work and therefore alot less cost Than doing the #2.

[Kaioshin]

pm'd the #2 inverted would require alot less work and therefore alot less cost Than doing the #2.

Well when I do an inverted #2, it usually requires a lot of work.

Fair price!!

[Clutch]

maybe i am just not imagining the inverted right, just the spokes powder? Or the whole thing hand polished then powder on the spokes, thanks for the fair price thing, i'm giving everyone from neco a better rate than what i am offering elsewhere, you guys are good people who i can count on and i'm not loosing money so i can give a break.

Just the front of the spokes and around cap powdered...the lip and inside will already be polished.

[Clutch]

the price will drop for that.

[Clutch]

any one want just a pearl clearcoat?

[Clutch]

I may be buying even bigger ovens today. Nothing like a set of ovens bigger than my living room. Oh god i'm going out of my mind.

[papi_chulo]

Have you ever done computer cases before, I'm trying to find somebody to power coat them when I do custom builds for my customers.

[Clutch]

Only metal, but any metal that can take 400 degrees for up to 45 minutes can be coated, I have never done those cases before but shouldn't be too hard.

[BigBalledOX]

Just out of curiousity, what would it be for a set of 16" stocker Cougar wheels powdercoated black?

[XplosivePlushToy]

Double because you arent CaroNECO :tongue:
