powder coating

Does anybody know if there are any "recomended" powder coaters in the West London/Heathrow ish area??

I am going to get both the front and rear footrest assemblies done in black so a hardwearing finish would be needed.

Sorry, I got excited then and thought this would be a review of the new Rimmel powder foundation...... I`ll leave now

oh dear, oh dear

Can't help FG1, but there is a good un just round the corner from me

or for the dogs dangles 'Triple S'
http://www.triple-s.co.uk/ as recommended by im indoors

I know its not in London, but they are that bloody good

Well, the wife does work in Terminal Five selling smellies and make up etc so I suppose you could be excused.
Thanks for the bump anyway.

There's a powder coaters just around the corner from me in Aldershot and they're quite reasonable on prices.
I had the SVs rear subframe, pillion pegs (2 pairs) and hangers, riders peg hangers and levers, 2 torque arms and the heel plates done. Also had the Raptors pegs and hangers done. They charged me £90 (which included the shot blasting and a little bit of welding).


Edit- remembered a couple of extra bits

Dizzy, the triple S prices look very reasonable indeed. Especially if their work is good.

I spoke to Triple S about doing the bits and they came out a fair bit more expensive than my local place

I know they aren't cheap, but they are exceedingly good. My local bike shop used them when he was in business. he used to restore old bikes and do custom jobs so the quality had to be good. Im Indoors has used them twice for his RDs and I know the YPVS red frame and RGV wheels were absolutely gorgeous

Hes also said that the prices don't include VAT on the website, so they may be more

Dirtydog, got a link or name for me ??
Here is a price list from Triple S, seems good to me.

Here's a complete list of bits that i had blasted and coated;

All done for £90 and in just a couple of days.



I'll probably be going back there in the next couple of weeks to get a few more bits done
