Suspension Powdercoating
SALAD - 6/3/06 at 05:33 PM

I have made contact with beige badger, my new powdercoating contact. I have to drop off the consignment after 19:00 hours to avoid the guards. I may not make it back from this one....... ANYWAY....how much do you think is a good price for powdercoating - wishbones, trailing arms, panhard rod and di dion axle? Prepared first then coated. Beige badger is doing them for me 'on the side' so will be for cash.

£25 for blasting and £25 for coating is what I was quoted for those bits by a mate (cash in hand). But I bought a compressor and spray gun instead!

So £60 for this guy to do isn't too bad then, I only met him today! Dropping the bits off tonight at his work and he will do them over the next few days.
(I have confidence he knows what he's doing)

sounds reasonable.

i got a prepped roll bar and cycle wing stays done for £15. it was the stays that cost most, as "they werry fiddly" says he, in his best broken english.

cash again, but i think that's all they deal in. good job though, and it never chipped.
