    Powder coating HELP!

    I bought an aluminum Moroso inter-cooler reservoir and would like to power coat it black. Is there anywhere around Pittsburgh I can get this done?

    Thanks guys!

    SWEET!! I want to get my dodge bumpers done. They rhino lined those massive things and the flat black just doesnt go well with the rest of the truck. Plus I am sure it adds a bit of weight to them. Especialy the front bumper lol.

    It will be on the road shortly lol. Have to replace a link bar on the suspension and trac bar bushing (Via. Mater). Get the hood lined up which I think the hinge is tweaked. Got the fender painted up at Volker's. After I get it on the road I can start buying some goodies for it. Bigger fender flares for one and power mod's hehe.

    I would talk to the powder coater before getting real excited. If it's really Rhino lining it might not be able to be removed well enough to powder coat ???

    It is some kind of coating like or is rhino. I did notice where the bumper was hit it was knocked off clean. Seems they painted over the gloss black without any sanding or etching done first. It may be a real pain in the ass to take off or they may be able to bake it off.

    Durable Powdercoat in Export Do a excellent job at a great price, they have a 20' oven they coated a 39 Chevy chassis for my a few months ago and a over 40 small parts. They can sand blast just about anything off coating wise But the cost goes up the more they have to blast.

    If you have access to a set of torches burn the coating off or get it loose...
