Well I'm not Pappy, by the wearing of the PC is normal. It's a lot stronger than the majority of coatings out there but it's not indestructible.:(

wear points are exactly that....wear points. sooner or later pc, chrome or nickle will wear. if anyone tells you it wont then they should be selling swamp land or actually ride thier quad in the same conditions as the rest of us do.

i can pc the frame chrome which looks like a very bright silver. pm POPO has he has excellent connections for chrome work.

Sure is irritating that your bling bling starts fading to the point of wanting it redone after one year. But that's about how long it will last if you do any serious riding. Just imagine what it looks like after a year of riding in the sand dunes:eek:

Boots + Sand + PC = :(

Ya gotta ride wide to make your PC last;) Next time have a coat of clear applied. it will help quite a bit. When I did my brake and clutch pedals I ran a test. I put clear on the brake and not on the clutch. after rididng it all season and half of last, the clutch needs redone, and the brake is only showing wear on the teeth of the pedal.

i used to cut people a price break if they stripped the parts....but it ended up i wasnt satisfied with the part when it arrived and i ended up stripping it anyway. so now i just price it out.

prices are kinda tuff because some people want 2 or 3 layer colors...others want me to remove bearings and seal and reinstall etc.

just pm me if you need a specific price and i will respond as soon as possible.
