Looking to powder coat my valve cover. Any suggestions?

 

it might help if you put your location

 

orange county, ca (my location) (714)

 

Embee

and/or

Olympic

 

Embee Performance ftw! They have great turn around time. I believe its 5 days. Alot of color choices and combinations also.

I got my header ceramic coated from embee last month.

 

Just noticed this is a old thread.

 

It is pretty old. I just bumped it for people who constantly ask these questions.

In Gardena try:

Color Code

or

Crisol

And btw, good places in my opinion don't always equate to cheap places but to each his own.

Do not pm me about any of these places.

I do not work for them.

 

can i pm you about sexual services?

 

No but the system will send you an auto pm on why I banned you.

 

lol

 

Just got a pair of wheels powder coated at WORCO in Long Beach. They do a lot of custom jobs for Work and involved with a lot of hot rods--over 40 years of experience. Turn around time is QUICK, from start to finish it only took about 3-4 days.

Cost? For a pair of 16s and just white it was $70/wheel. It includes bead blasting and the powder coating.

Highly recommended.

 

$70 for each wheel sounds a lil high

 

Yeah thats too much. $50/wheel sounds more reasonable.

 

exactly what i was thinking

 

if you guys say so, but I liked how experienced Worco was. I got my wheels done in 4 days haha. Plus they were very near my home, so I saved money on gas and had extra convenience.

I paid $80 each in santa ana fully refurbished. $15 extra for mounted and balance. Wheels that are bent or ****ed was $120. They are legit its called Wheel specialist I believe. You pay for what you get I guess?

 

yea stripping the wheels isnt always included in the cost of powder coat. some places just do not have the resources for that type of thing. esp if the wheel was powder coated already or if it has pitted chrome plating on them they would need to acid dip the finish off.

 

going to hit these guys up since I just found out my wheels arent running true because they're deformed--not noticeably bent.

Hopefully these guys can do it without marring the fresh paint, but I'm doubtful.

 

my brother works at Embee and they do great work
