Hello,

first question what is the difference when it says dormant? in the photos it seems they are brighter then the other colors is this true in person versus the photo?

i noticed in another thread you linked that you use columbia coatings so i was browsing their site have you done anything with these colors and maybe have a photo?

i noticed in the picture thread you listed granny smith green but didn't say dormant is it the same?

do the oranges in powdercoating pop like the orange candy automotive paint?
like this example:

Dormant powders react to the clear and change to their final color. They dont "pop"anymore then regular candy colors for teh most part, but you do get the benefit of a clear and the color of a candy


Ive used granny and there should be pics in the colors thread.Ive messed with the oranges and dont really care for them on atv related parts. The oranges do have a similiar look to paint but it really needs to be a larger item for it to really show itself

so in your opinion doing a frame in the candy orange doesn't allow enough surface area to show off the color like the gsg or the candy blue?

[Pappy]

Thats the way I see it.:p

what shipping method do you reccomend coming from the west coast as quick calculations put the shipping prices into the 400$ range

[Pappy]

In all honesty, you should try and find someone on the west coast! They will beat the hell out of a aftermarket frame trust me!
