pappy how is the molycaoting put on is it powdercat or what thanks

[Pappy]

its a liquid not a powder. the molydendum sulfide (sorry if i spelled that wrong) is carried via a liquid agent that evaporates almost immediatley upon contact with a pre heated (120 degrees) part. after the application the part is cured at 325 degrees(part temp) for 1 hour.

without molycoated shafts

with molycoated shafts

[wanta450]

how would you do spindles then wouldnt the pc get messed up if it is baked again at 325 for an hour:confused:

[Pappy]

it would if you powdercoated it first;)

I can see why this molycoat keeps stuff from rusting now. How long does the liquid (oily) stuff keep coming out of the part.

I'll be sending you a lot more stuff to molycoat this coming winter.

[Pappy]

actually the oil is exactly that, oil.

when it comes out of the oven, and allowed to cool a bit, you "burnish" the part with oil. this oil seeps into the pores while cooling and the coating is locked in. usually i whipe it all off before i ship but yours i wanted to remain that way so you could see how slippery it stays:p

[Pappy]

The newest version of the matt black moly is a bit more black and has more of a sheen then the old version. The company stated it was done merely for a better appearence.

It looks pretty sweet.

I might have to send you more stuff soon. Maybe when I get a total on shocks and rpm order.

[Pappy]

no prob at all, it is easier for me to do a larger batch but i usually have enough to do atleast 1 batch a night so downtime and turn around are good

[bad01300ex]

does that eventually chip off like pc?

[Pappy]

nope, you can wear the color away and the metal is still 100% protected!

[44oEX]

how expencive is it to do?

lets say someone sents you a bunch of bolts and bushings and stuff?....I know it's probably hard to give a exact price....but I just want a get a idea.

Thanks

[Pappy]

i reckon it depends on what you feel is expensive, $1 a bolt or washer is what i get. the smaller parts are actually a pain to do, but ive done them:p

[2001300exguy]

does it hold up on sprockets?

[Pappy]

yep. my 450R sprockets have been done for almost a year, they are shiney inbetween the teeth but absolutley no rust and no signs of wear.

[K_Fulk]

Can you pick up a 36 tooth honda rear sprocket and do it for me? Don't know if you sell them or not.

I have more stuff to send out tommorow.

[Pappy]

36 tooth rear sprocket for a yfz...consider it ordered

[K_Fulk]

I need a honda sprocket. :cool: Ordered the honda sprocket hub for my axle. Stuff should be there i the next few days. Thanks

[Pappy]

wheew...ya had me wonderin for a second:p

[K_Fulk]

It does get confusing. But I'm trying to use everything with a honda pattern, since I have a good collection of honda wheels and sprockets.

[Pappy]

no problem there. my bro's yfz didnt benefit from all my honda junk:p i know he wishes he would switch a few things to honda style

[K_Fulk]

Just send me a total when you get everything.

Thanks.
