I am looking for input on colors for powdercoating. I can powdercoat parts that will fit in a conventional electric oven. Let me know what you may be interested in having done. I will be very reasonable on price.

I'll be looking to get my scoop and possibly my valve covers done. I'm thinking a candy apple red for the scoop to give it a look something like this-

the valve covers are going to be more involved because I would really like to have what's called Black Chrome but I'd also like to have some of the engraving in red and some in yellow. I guess I could just use paint on the engraving part like they are now. You can kind of see how they are in this pic=

How much to coat the T ram, in ultimate chrome?
And coat the carb spacers, tank, T stat housing, fuel log and scoop in hot candy blue.

I plan on doing what your doing in 6 years when I retire. I already work on some of the locals boats but when I retire I will no longer do it for free. Got to buy av gas some how to keep mine on the water :mrgreen: Would like to know how you got started if you don't mind sharing that info. I'm in central Oklahoma so I can work this area with out a conflict I'm sure. besides I still have 6 years to slave for the other guy :lol:

Depending on how much prep is needed, I would guesstimate $250.00.

I really wish I had some extra cash!!! I do have a couple of things to get done but with very little work on the horizon it's tough to be spending on things other than necessities.

I'm working on it! Someone on Performance boats is looking for a ski tow that I happen to have. I offered to trade it for a couple of pounds of powder....1 lb of Solar Rain and a lb of Candy Red.

do you have any chrome or clear powders?
