Default Anyone reccommend me a good powder coating company????????

As above, ideally around the south yorkshire area, but not really a problem as long as its not too far from any major motorways as im all over the country in the week anyway.

Im wanting to get two motorcycle wheels powder coated in pearl white.

A rough idea on price would be good too if possible.

Cheers.

Thanks for that guys. Im planning a bit infront at the moment as i havnt even got the bike yet , but im definatly going to get them done when i do.

TOTB-3, yes i know where you mean mate, cheers. Have you had work done there and was the price ok?

I assume powder coating can be done in any colour as i really need pearl white.

Cheers.

polydon in doncaster is the best I've used. there are a couple of places in sheffield but I wasn't happy with the work & won't go back.
definately do not use the one at killamarsh, took some stuff there & it was shocking quality & not even the correct colour

Thanks for those two, ill PM fletchcossie and phone batchglow to see how much they want. Cheers.

In phoned a few in Sheffield today, and most said they dont do motorcycle wheels. I did get a price of only £25 per wheel, but they could only do it it solid white, and said they could do metallic white but it would be £80 on top as they'd have to buy a batch of metallic white powder.

Still, not bad at £130 though, as long as the finish is spot on.

There 17" mate unfortunatly.

Does that sound about right for the metallic white powder mate? He said it would be £80 extra for 5kg of metallic white powder.

I cant see many people having met white already in, so looks like i might have to pay the extra.
