Powder Coating, I have had three vintage Brit frames powder coated by Taint
Paint in Colorado Springs, Co Ph#1-8007338374, I have been VERY please with
the results, the lugs stand out as with painting, I even had them finish the
head panel and downtube panel a different colour, they had to mask the lugs and
did a fine job, all three frames look good, they do not scratch or chip. My
1950 Mercian whch was refinished by Mercian DOES chip and scratch with ease.
ONE problem that I have had is applying transfers, DECALS, they go one fine,
if I wait a time for them to dry, then to clear coat them, has been a
problem, I am looking for an Auto Body shop that will clear coat the frame with the
transfers applied, most shops do not want to take the time to do this, does
anyone have an answer to this, is there a can spray on clear coat that can be
recommended, Lloyus says not to use a cellulose or acrylic base but a Oil
base, one other note, one frame was done 18 months ago and the finish is still
like new, Cheers John Crump. Parker Co.USA
