[QUOTE="Jasle, post: 394514, member: 26675"] Not sure how much value you put on your time but I would factor this in when deciding to paint or powdercoat. 1. If you paint it you will have to do it again a LOT sooner. 2. If you paint it you will have to sand it. PITA plus hours and hours sanding. 3. The hours and hours of sanding. 4. Cost of materials. $25 easy for sandpaper and three or four cans of paint. Primer, Hours of sanding. in the end I decided to take it to the powdercoater. For $90 they sandblasted the frame and powdercoated it. I'm a little biased here because its 110ºF and my garage isn't air condidtioned. I found a place across town that would do it for $75 but It wasn't worth $15 to me to drive across town twice. Besides that for the price I got an incredible finish from a place that wins shows with their powdercoat. Jason [/QUOTE]
