Where from? Local or have to post? My local powdercoater wants £80+

And does that include stripping the paint etc?

Can you send me some links?

Re: new seat for tzr monkey

the place that quoted me actually do wheels ect but as the monkey frame is so small i see no reason why it won't fit in the blast cabinet

www.maxpowderalloys.co.uk heard good reviews on their powder coating from friends that have had wheels done there.
will still need to get the tank repainted and the back part of the seat... maybe a stripe or two as well

do hope after the work i don't bin it at whilton mill lol

Re: new seat for tzr monkey

I've built my own blast cabinet out of an old fridge, works really well - I might be making my own powder coating oven too if I can find a metal box big enough.
