Title: Extreme Powder Coating in Lorton?
Post by: ducatiz on August 15, 2011, 10:40:57 AM
Anyone use them?

I talked to the owner today, dropped off a stair rail to PC.

He does a lot of bike stuff.  They had a bunch of different kinds of wheels with their work in the front.

Cost to do a Pantah frame is about $300, swingarm another $80

Wheels are 80-100 depending on the wheel.

They don't.  Only powder.  They have an oven as big as a Car.

When I need ceramic, I can go elsewhere, but these guys do all kinds of stuff -- and they had the Brno MGP race on the wide screen in the office.   [thumbsup]

And they will do stainless, which I've read needs special prep.

Got any photos of the finished work? What's your opinion of them? Good value? My Bianca will need some good paintwork done in order to be worthy of the name! ;)

I got my top triple rearsets, etc powdered by them recently.  They did a good job and the price was reasonable.  They also do ceramic coating.  I was planning on taking my header pipe there to get ceramic coated soon; just haven't figured out how to do it yet.  If anyone wants to get some ceramic done, we could try and take it together and save money.

BTW, not to advertise another board on here, but if you are a member of DCsportbikes.net, they are running a special this month for 20% off.  You don't have to be a paid member either.
