Why not talk to some of the local builders? I'm sure they'd be happy
to help you out.

that saves a lot of time.

hey, imron paint is generally durable. with powder coating in my
experience, corrosion can and does happen under an otherwise normal
looking finish. with wet paint this doesn't happen, im not sure why
this is.
i also lock my bike outside, but i wouldn't really consider powder
coat, the finish
fwiw, if you do decide powder coating is the way to go, there is a
really great coater across the street from my house of the morgan L
stop. Avant Guards. They are pricey but for all my jobs where the
coating needs to be nice, i use them. Patson (sp?) on meadow street
is super cheap but pretty
Here in Minnesota, we consider powder coat the best protection against extreme
cold weather and is more durable. Many folks here will agree with me. I had
my bike powder coated few years ago and I do not see any rust developed. I do
not know what experience you, Jamison had, perhaps the
For powdercoating, look into Powdercoat studio, linked from the
fixedgeargallery website. It's run by a guy I know from other forums,
it looks like they do great work and it's very reasonable. It's in
Michigan, so you'd have to ship your frame, but given their prices, I
think it would be worth
powder coating is a very durable finish. i completely agree with that
statement. i have had many bikes powder coated, and as a wood and
metal fabricator, i have had many parts powder coated. A couple of
years ago i did a project, where the client requested a clear
powdercoat on some steel
Jamison:
Wow, that's quite a thorough experiment. I also recall that the clear-
coated Riv Bombadils were having issues with rust appearing under the
clearcoat, which I believe was a wet clearcoat. Puzzling indeed
As for the Color Factory's process, Bruce tells me he bead-blasts the
frame,
Hey BB,
Those are both beauties ... tell me (us) ... how durable would you say
the paint is? Will it hold up to street signs and U-Locks, that sort
of thing, or does it nick and scratch easily? And, btw: I'm not saying
nick and scratch easily is a bad thing, I'm just looking for something
durable
Jeff:
Thanks, the paintjob is excellent. I am no paint expert, but my
general understanding is that wet paint (like Imron) gives a beautiful
finish, and is great for 2-tone paintjobs but can nick and chip... I
haven't experienced it yet, but then again I haven't really put these
frames to a
I use The Color Factory in Waretown, NJ (near Toms River). Bruce
Risley is the owner, and he uses only wet (DuPont Imron) paint. Here
are photos of 2 of his paintjobs (on my bikes)... I think he does a
fabulous job, and his prices are very reasonable.
