Powder coating in phoenix???

I would like to get my frame powder coated but I can't seem to find any places that seem decent to me, they all seem to be a bit shady, anyone in the phoenix,az area know of any places?

Glendale Powder Coating

I've done several bike chassis and alot of furniture with them and been happy. usually a few days turn around time. when you pull up you will see all the chopper, sand rail, ect frames waiting their turn.

thanks thats right by me and i didn't know there was one there, i'm at 40th ave and missouri, must be my lucky day or something!

the only problem with powdercoating is it doesnt lend itself well to modifications,if its gonna be a dragbike youre always gonna be adding/removing differant things till you get your combination figured out.id suggest painting it for now till you get everything figured out.

What should I use then, spray paint? I just want it orange, lol, but thought powder coating would last longer, and be a ton stronger

depends on your skill level,i just hate to see ya having to change it once you powdercoat it.we are going to get my 1385 completely done with a smaller motor and drive it around a few times before blowing it back apart for painting and the mother of all motors!:evil:

Well i plan for it to be a low maintenance bracket drag bike. Simple enough right?

thats how my projects start out too! skipper needed an exhuast stud for his bike just pull one off here,well this parts looking rough better replate it,better paint this part now,now this part looks bad,wonder how this would look with that swingarm...... next thing ya know youre sitting in solomrus's garage trying to remember why you took that running bike you were gonna do a quickie 3 week detail job on all apart!:pinch: trust me it happens!hahaha

well considering i have no buddies with bikes, and its my only bike, and i have to tear it apart anyways, i just figured i do it while i built it
