Hey Pappy, I have all my parts prepped for powdercoat, I was just curious if I should take any special care to the swingarm? I have everything removed, but its a pretty complicated piece and I dont want to have to scrape off PC from places it shouldnt be..

Also, I sandblasted my header on my bike, its the stock one, but I would still like to do something to it.. I really want to chrome it, but it will turn colors from the heat, do you know of any good ceramic coating places? Do you do ceramic coating? They have one that looks similar to chrome.

I have a 400ex

I always block off the carrier area, you can tape it or roll up a piece of paper then after you coat it, slide it out.

You will also want to tape off the area where the pivot bearings go, i also tape off teh area where the collars will go.

Thats about it, just tape or block off where you do not want powder to go.



for that color of ceramic i highly recommend www.jetcoat.com , all i shoot is black for simplicity
:p
