Gonna try powder coating some parts tomorrow with my handy dandy Craftsman Powder Coater...
A couple of years ago, I blacked out a bunch of brackets, bolts, and washers behind my saddlebags using a rattle can. Looked damned good for about a year... now all the paint has begun to chip off and looks like crap.
I bought the Craftsman Powder Coater over a year ago after reading some good reviews and a nice pictorial some guy put up showing his tests and procedure. Gordito and Doug are coming over tomorrow to work on our bikes. I'm going to give this thing a go... stuff can't look worse than it does now... I'll take some pics of the process if anyone is interested...  Here is the guy's write up: Here are my final results... and review of the system... Last edited by 8-Ball; 02-03-2008 at 02:35 PM.
