If anyone hasn't seen Steve's work, it is fantastic. And it may be the best value in pinball right now.

I've been in the hobby since the mid 90's, but this is the first time I've had one of my games powdercoated. Steve was great to work with, patiently answered all my newbie questions, showed progress throughout the process, and sent back an incredible product in a timely manner. I will absolutely use Steve again for powdercoating. Pictures do not do his work justice.

Game: CCr SE
Powder: Prismatic Dark Grey Sparkle
Parts: Legs, lockdown bar, siderails, shooter housing, shooter knob, hinges, and speaker surrounds

Here are a few before and after pictures. I still need to paint or find black siderail screws.

Looks like your MB in the background is powder coated...got better pics and a color?

Eagerly waiting for my shiny eye candy

The MB is an LE and came powdercoated from the factory. CCrSE was feeling left out, so got the treatment to level up

If you look in the MB owners thread they discuss color ideas, but I bet Steve here also has done an SE and has recommendations.

Love the gunmetal dude. Reminds me too much of my Warhammer 40K painting days though. That color goes on just about everything.

Thanks! I remember the day I bought flesh colored paint for those figurines. Game changer, lol.

awesome choice and glad it worked out with Steve! Another happy customer of Pinball Refinery!

Thanks for the tip about ordering color swatches. Saved my bacon and no surprises!

Steve does it again…I have this same color on my Fish Tales and I love it. So versatile. It’s pretty subtle until the light hits it. Works very well on pins with many colors like FT and GZ. Prismatic Universe + clearcoat. The smooth feel is awesome too.

Awesome red! reminds me of the candy apple red corvette from the movie Corvette Summer. Looks as you’ve been busy

Is that Illusion Cherry?

I'm thinking of that for Godzilla Premium, what do you think?

What color or colors do you think will look good on FF premium

The Godzilla and Elvira are mine. Look so good! Can't wait to see them at TPF!!

So does it look black most of the time?

It looks sorta greenish gray until light hits it. Like this…

That "King Ghidorah" gold set for GZ is interesting. I never considered that color, but it would fit with the Ghidorah themed Premium backglass/cabinet.

Whomever ordered that, post some pics after install

Any way to do a deep blue for spiderman vault with some red sparkle in it?

I would like to see that as well. I'm debating over that gold, the burnt orange from the last page, or the green that glows in the dark that Steve has on his own GZ. I'm using the Myth flaming lights kit with possible undercab flame lighting, so would it look better with burnt orange or is that too much so the green is better? hmmm

Decisions, man... I'm the worst. I would like a black sparkle or a red for Space Station, I'm debating over dark Disco Red, purple, or just red for DP Prem, and also GZ. I can't make up my mind

on powder coat job #6 with Steve and this rivals the STh and AFM jobs…god I might like this best! Amazing job Steve! It looks even better in person the pics don’t do it justice!

Have you done any Getaway HS2 machines? Seems like they're always powder coated a deep red but I'm wondering if there's something else out there that looks good. I'm also going try and restore my Mousin Around this year... Powered armor might be in the cards for that but not sure what color would look good... Hmmm...

My Refinery Bond. Thanks Steve!

These pics make me want to get my CCRSE and my WCS done.

These look really good. My favorites are the bond from last week and the JP at the beginning of the post. Nice work!

Just one silly question those of you that have done this what do you do about your game while it’s getting this treatment. I guess break it down and not play it?

Or, throw some old legs on it, if you have any old sets. Hinges you can remove and keep the head up, latched or use the safety bolts in the head. I have old lock bars too, so I use an old one. If you are having a recent pin done and your lcd/speaker box is gone, that’s another story! Same goes for your coin door, I suppose.

Really like this look!

Can the side rail screws and leg bolts not be PC'ed or would that mess them up?
