powdercoating, the result
14 Dec 2009 02:59
Hi there, just have powdercoated my rims..
before:
after:
and yes they are not on the bike but on the kitchen top : 9and yes the missus didnt mind as such (she wasnt there are the time ^^ )
ill upload some piccies once there on the bike. (and i have my repainted tank and sides in)
Im not the polishing kind that much so i went for the full coat. I made a custom "enclosure" out of professional plastics and steel, which held up perfectly during the glass bead blasting and backing..
