I'll check out the local second hand stores on Thursday (goodwill, etc.) to see if they've got anything.

You buy the powdercoater, I'll provide the oven! :w00t:

well...i'm sure if i did go in a few hours early i would be able to get away with it. we run plastic parts but i'm sure i could skip the plastic prep and go straight to the copper/nickel/chrome tanks....i can even strip chrome....hehe

[tom6433]

nice. you should do a test piece some time and show us how it turned out. i don't think i have anything big that needs done, just my heat shield. i want to get my valve cover powdercoated but that would be a big chore.

Yeah I may have some rims shortly that need a gloss black finish....
