I had a good source a few years ago, but they're gone now

I looked into this a while ago... when I was going to get my plenum done.
I found a few through the usual seach tools.

Most seamed industrial related & didn't want to bother with small jobs.

i have always been thinking to powdercoat stuff.

oh btw, can the stock grille be powdercoated? or it can only be dipped/electroplated because it is plastic?

coz i have a chip that is large enough that caused cracks on the front grille....stupid 401 !!!!

Check out Chameleon in Mississauga.

905 629 4885
940 Kamato Rd

Ask for Trevor Mawhinney, he is the VP

Tell him you have been referred by Campbell, he drives a Lotus Elise.

Good Luck,

Bill

home powder-coating kits aren't that expensive, my dad just picked one up for his bike parts, just the oven will need to be built, small stuff can be done in an old kitchen range (i think wheels will fit too, depending on the range, and the wheels, if not just build a bigger box)

i'm thinking of doing my rims this winter too.

Interesting.... How good are the results with that????
A true powder coat is an electrostatic process before heat curing.
How does the home system get the powder to adhere?

Hey me again, Musti82 sent me a PM about my powdercoated rims in Ottawa.

http://www.rldindustries.com/ awesome company, managed by a buddy of mine father. Give them a call, I think you're looking at around 400 bucks for our stock wheels. But they will come out looking OEM painted.









They also provide other services, I had the hot parts of my TT kit Cermakromed there as well.

Yeah the way I see it is you pay for what you get right. It's something I wouldnt want done poorly. They clean them up and everything, just drop em off...

Actually the price seems pretty good to me to get 4 wheels powdercoated.
Looks good.
