Folks,

I finally got a chance to sit down and figure out formal pricing for all powder coating on standard machine parts.

There are 2 types of powder:

Single Stage (Gloss Black, Matte Black, Gloss Red, Matte Red, Etc).
Two Stage (Transparent Brass, Super Chrome Powder, Candy Apple Red, Candy Apple Green, Metallics and Flakes, etc..)

So here goes:

Legs: Single Stage - $30 Each. Two Stage - $35 Each.
Lockdown: Single Stage - $30. Two Stage - $35.
Lockdown Assembly: Single Stage $30 Two Stage - $35.
Rails: Single Stage $20 Each. Two Stage - $30 Each.
Hinges*: Single Stage $25 Each. Two Stage - $35 Each.
Shooter Housing: Single Stage $10. Two Stage - $15.
Gun Type Handle (STTNG, Shadow, DM): Single Stage $25 (Each). Two Stage - $35 (Each)
Habit Trails/Wireforms**: Single Stage $90. Two Stage - $110.
Coin Door - Coin Frame - Coin Slots***: Single Stage $90. Two Stage - $120.00

*: For all parts that are factory powder coated (Like Hinges or Stern Lockdowns/Legs) add $5 per part for existing paint/powder removal. Sandblasting and Deburring takes time

**: This is a flat fee regardless of machine. It is too difficult to quote out each machine individually given the wide range of trails/lengths.

***: Coin Door requires Sandblasting so add $10 to the cost for it.

Discounts are available for whole machines. (Rails, Lockdown, Legs, Hinges,Coin Door, etc.)

Thanks for all the business guys!

Same price. Its more the labor than the powder.

I did some testing, turns out ceramic is good but not better than silver matte PC on underside parts. Both are a corrosive barrier which is what you are doing for. Those I would quote out individually as each machine is vastly different on what parts you would send over.

Sure, a Metallic blue or Metallic black is a 2 stage. Price is above. I can certainly do it and i have the tools to disassemble it too. I did a chrome shooter handle for a pinsider on an STTNG just recently.

Goto http://www.prismaticpowders.com and pick a color. Any color works

The only thing i wont powder on that is the trigger button (I can buff it out though so it looks good) If i powder the button it tends to tighten the trigger as the tolerances on it are real tiny so there isn't really room for an extra layer.

Thanks! Can't wait to get them. Just mark which parts get what colors.

As idtattoo says these prices aren't marked up. They are done at cost for the community.

Absolutely. I can meet you at the shop if you wanted too.

P.S. I am coming by your place to play a few games. Never played a funhouse in person and i love the hell out of it on pinball arcade

More pics coming soon

I sprayed a demo red candy on some scrap for you iron man owners recently to see what it would look like:

OoOoOO La La! Sexy Red! Can't wait to see more and more pics of the awesome powdercoating bro!
P.S. Like that wagon pic you sent me. I've never stared at a pic of a "wagon" more in my life

LOL for Context into what fattrain is talking about:

Quite a few of you have asked for "Black Chrome" While I don't do black nickel because its caustic and i'd rather not mess with it, I do this instead. And in my opinion is a hell of a lot better (and no finger prints)

Coincidentally my tron pro is going to be done in it when it comes

Or the blue T bar color, cant decide.

What can I say man? Those colors are just gonna look BAD ASS on my TFTC

I found a closeup of the purple..

JJ. Send me whatever you want brother

Aprons are 35 single stage and. $50 2 stage. +10 bucks to blast. Most people don't do them because the decals may not be available. I have no problem doing them if you want them done. Obviously not the stern plastic ones though

I could imagine the green on that wagon looking great on the ball lock wheel. Wouldn't even need a decal

Yes but it's not cost effective for me to fire up the oven for ball gates. If its with a bunch of other parts of the same color absolutely.

To just pc a few small pieces from the PF would cost me a ton and I would have to pass that cost on.

My oven is 12'wx14'dx10'h and powder sets at 400 degrees far. That's why it's mainly a 2-3 week turnaround because I batch parts of the same color together in the oven.

What some people don't realize is you can't put 2 different colors in the oven at the same time. They cross pollinate and you end up with a Dalmatian

Here's a pic of my newly installed oven. I roll chassis into it

I need to somehow talk to Gary Stern. Whatever he is paying to PC his parts I'll beat it by 20% or better . That way pro's can get slick coloring too.

Working on that. Not many car/bike parts are tiny . That's what I'm looking at getting. Something like a 2'x2'x2'. Harbor freight has one but I have no idea how good it is.

The issue with a larger oven is space. And I'm running out . I will definitely get a small electric oven... I just need to find a good one (not necessarily used) to fit in a corner. My media blaster takes up a ton of room too. Not including the 12 bath/plating tubs and my buffing room.
