View Full Version : Powder coating services in Kent
My wheels are now being powder coated yellow, and the calipers are having 2k Bright red sprayed on them. Just thought I would mention this as I thought the price was very reasonable.
Two wheels powder coated, the guy will take your tyres off and take out the bearings. He will then powder coat them, put your new bearings in(You have to supply) refit the tyre and balance it etc. Put the disc's/ sprockets back on for you. All for 60 pounds a wheel.
He is also local for people in Kent/South London.
The guy's name is Mark and he is situated next to Sidcup Tyres in Sidcup in Kent.
Also to powder coat a swing arm in black will cost 35 pounds.
I will put pictures on the net when I get the bike back on Saturday. And the guys phone number

Nice and easy si, but thats a bit dear imo. Cost me £100 all in for getting tyres taken off, fitted balanced and the purchase of new bearings for both wheels. However, i would pay a little extra for the ease of it all.
Oo and the bloke he uses in located in belvedere and charges £8 a wheel. I met him at SMT once, got his number, the promptly lost it..DOH!
This was after i had my wheels done :cry:
How the hell can he make any money out of that the bearings alone are 16 pounds each with say 10 quid for fitting and balancing for for tyres say another 10 for fitting bearings. That's 46 quid, so we are looking from this guy in belvedere what 4pound to powder coat a wheel. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Si, sorry, i meant to state that was for the powder coating only. So hes making a tidy profit on the coating alone. May be worth negotiatiing etc etc. The bearings are not £16 each! I paid about £30 for front rear and the sprocket carrier from Spares direct.
Sorry I'm bloody gonna disagree. I paid 32pounds for the front and back, which is roughly 16pounds each. So therefore 120squid for two wheels all powder coated, balanced, new bearings fitted etc etc, as long as I supply the bearings.

Bit like saying you want 4,000 for your bike, I can get the same model down at my local dealer for 500 pounds less. :lol: It's one of those sorts of posts. It's cheaper so there,!!! but i havn't got a phone number.
And i'm not a muppet, I'm spelling it this way, because he says it with an accent in the sketch :shock: :shock: , next time when you watch it, listen

Cant believe you rang up to check Vineys pricing!
ah right... just saw your last post... forgot you were a habitual liar :roll:
No I didn't cause I'm in Holland, but that is the ALANSV fish just hooked. :lol: Sorry mate should have read my last post better.
sexysi
Sorry I thought you were actually telling the truth, I should have known better. silly me!
is that price including the spraying of the calipers?
Oh no the calipers are very expensive. The front ones are 45pounds each the rear about 35pounds. Basically the masking of them is a pain in the ****. The rear caliper you can split in 2 and mask seperately, but the fronts you can't.
So 125pounds gets you front and rear calipers respray bright rear and put back together with 2 pack paint.
I might try spraying my own swing arm black as long as i can get the castle socket to get the damn thing off.
sexysi
Eh? You are daft enough to call them anyway, so lets face it, you are a crap fisherman, as i havent bitten, only stating facts, so what ever wierd crap you are eating in Hollnad, id stop if i where you!
Post back on now, but the text has changed :shock:
