Some pics of the rebuild.....

[jlsparky7]

My cousin and I are currently rebuilding his 02 blaster. He got the frame, swingarm, and axle carrier powerdercoated and painted the rest of the parts. Everything was really rusted and chipped up. This powerdercoating is amazing. Let me know what you think and how much you would be willing to pay for it, just for sh*ts and giggles. Thanks in advance.

I know thw shocks are on upside down but that was the only way we could get the springs back on the shocks to paint them. We will be switching them back tomorrow.

to be competely honest, yes, indeed i can. My buddy works at a place where they do over lawn chairs and tables ect, so hes sandblasting and powdercoating all day, price i pay? whatever my paint is going to cost, service is completely free

Powdercoating, if applied and cured properly on a substrate that is prepped correctly is FAR superior to any painted finish in terms of durability.
FYI...
If you have something powdercoated and want some extra insurance, have the piece clear coated with a high gloss clear powder. This will help minimize the knicks, scratches etc. In fact, some colors must be cleared to withstand solvents such as gasoline, brake cleaner, etc...





HOWEVER, if you need to strip powdercoating, it can be very slow and painstaking (without a specific powdercoating stripper).

I am about to strip my Blaster and powdercoat almost everything on the bike, including the motor.

When you consider the price of doing something like powdercoating, consider the lifespan. It shouldn't be just about initial cost.
