Was walking my beat tonight and discovered that there's a new place opened up in the east end of glasgow thats doing powdercoating and shot blasting etc-I went in and spoke to the owner-quoted me around forty quid for two wheels blasted and powdercoated, very good price me thinks-i'm gonna get some more details from him next week and mod permitting will post them up for future reference

£40 is half what I paid at chamelion. Damn good price, but I can beat it. I found out yesterday that my mate has everything in his shed to do it. So my fork lowers are going to get done this week. My price....free!!!! Well, maybe a bottle of JackD to keep him happy. :D

Tiger55 are you just randomly selecting photos of celebrities until you stumble across one that remotely resembles you? ;)
Just a thought, Motorcycle wheels have to be done at a certain temprature, so make sure that thy know what they are doing.

Think they use up to 200 degrees C & that could also make them brittle which is something I wouldn't want at speed!
