Default Powdercoating in NoVA/DC/MD area

I've got some intercooler piping I'd like to get powdercoated locally,
I'm getting tired of sending things to Swanin-Tech all the time.

Might have a connection back in Ohio, but I hear he can be a little slow at times and ... well, time's running out.

In the mean time I'll weld a couple beads on a few of the tube ends that don't have them.

I got my Kosei's powdercoated at Precision Powdercoating down in Richmond. They did a good job.

EDIT - Ok, I need hooked-on-phonics. Richmond seems to be out of your targeted vicinity.

Thank You, anything a little closer (not that Richmond is all that far).

Thanks, I just talked to them ... and, they're not that cheap either but the turn around time is minimal (and that includes sandblasting the pieces).

hehe ... forgot to ask about colors!
What would look good for IC piping in a white ITR?

uhmmm green...I think a CW powdercoat would be original, but overdone. I was always a fan of polished or black coating.

All of the Swain-Tech coatings on the Inline-Pro manifold and the hot side of the turbo will be white (the normal color for their TBC).

Green ... ummm , NO!

Was thinking more along the lines of either a clean looking black or a red, to match the valvecover and add some nice contrast to the engine compartment.
