Recommended Powdercoater

Postby Entourage » Mon Oct 11, 2010 11:38 am

Hi There -

I am not from the Denver area and need some advice. I need to have my front springs and shock towers powdercoated red. I really need to get it done this week. Does anyone here have a place in the Front Range area they recommend? Any poweercoating places to avoid?

When I go in, I will make sure I tell them about this club and hopefully get a club discount for members going forward.

Thanks, Chad.

Sweet - I knew I could count on the guy with the lime green custom parts to know exactly where to go. BTW why do you use the Grizzly Rose as a reference point? Do you have Cowboy Boots Zilla? :)

Thanks a ton for the input. I hope it costs less than $159.99 to have them coated vs. buying new ones. I will call them for a quote.

Thanks again.

Roadrunner, out past I70 heading north on 25...hands down. They do more industrial stuff so they do massive amounts of coating, makes for low cost for guys like us with little parts here and there.

I will give Roadrunner a call. I called PCS and got a quote of $110 to Coat my springs RED. New springs are $159 so I was discouraged after getting the quote and assumed that was the going rate. I would understand if I was doing a crazy color but I am doing just a stock RED.

Thanks for the tip and I will give them a call today.

Roadrunner wants $35.00 per spring for Blasting and Coating for RED. They are about a week to turn it around. Thanks for the advice guys.

I could not believe the colors, finishes, textures, metallics, etc. available at Roadrunner. They were working on Fire Trucks, a Ford Harley Edition F150, resto projects, etc. Lots of cool stuff going on. When I pick up my springs this week, I will tell him about our club. Turn around is about a week. The owner is way cool.
