400ex127 Powder coated this heat shield for me. If you recall the post, I didnt tell him what i wanted done to it. I just sent it. And this is how it turned out!! :D P.S. This is after 3 weeks of abuse. And it still looks brand new. Dont mind the dirty quad and the dirty bolts on the shield. I havent had a chance to clean it yet:(

ahahahha, u cant powcercoat things like a seat or airbox,, it has to be metal,,, and why would u powderocat a piston...it would probably be worse....

well...do to all the small moving parts it would be very difficult getting the powder where ya need it and off the parts ya dont want it on. if someone has one for me to try...send it...im always lookin for practice stuff.

Pappy
09-29-2002, 06:22 PM
oh yeah....the main reason i dont quote pricing is because it depends on the part...what color or colors you want...the age of the part and its condition....etc. in this pic...it took me ten minutes to "coat " those pieces....but i have close to 3 hours in sand blasting and stripping them.

well it is just one piece that is on the back of the handelbars, that has two bolts that go through it. sorry that i dont know what it is called, but i just want it to be silver instead of black. it is off of a 2002 so you probably wouldnt have to clean or strip it too much.

ps: it is shaped like a C, sorry again thanx

you can only safely powdercoat aftermarket a arms. its because you cant remove the ball joints. i know it has been done..but i wont do them. i have painted a few sets for guys tho.

Hey kenny, could you do flames? hehe. I think it would look awsome to have flames into black, or just the yellow fading to black. What would that cost? With and with out me stripping it.

Pappy
10-02-2002, 09:09 PM
yes flames are possible with powdercoat...i tried doing them for LVegas 400 with no luck:( i will keep practicing tho and when i get them down i will post a pic
