2 Strokes Down Under

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a powder coaters in the Sydney area that will do a top job on my 350 frame.
Have any of you Sydney blokes got a favourite company? Any recommendations ? I am looking for someone who can take care of the whole process, blasting included.

Thanks in anticipation.

Impact bead and Blast in Blacktown 02 9671 3696

Sadly I have to say that both the coaters Ive used, one in brookvale and one up the central coast I wouldnt recommend.

Usually the powder coaters are in it for an industrial finish which can be a bit ordinary so you have to find a good one. I gave the guy who does my work stuff a go last week with my 2XT wheels, he did too good a job and coated everything . Not Impact Bead and Blast by the way

Pro Strip in Newcastle are 'bike blokes' and regular VMX competitors.

Thanks for the info guys.
I've also been told about Precision Coating Services in Seven Hills. Has anyone used them?

I live and work in Seven Hills and got a set of wheels done for my 3MA a few years back,I can't remember who I used but they had a few attempts and they still look shit.

Thanks for the heads up!

I've used Mr Kleen at Padstow for a frame and will use them again as they do a reasonable job for a reasonable price. Vanessa their knows her stuff even though they do a lot of industrial stuff too.
I am going to try a bloke for my wheels who the Jap Car tuners use for their wheels called Craved Coatings in Penrith. He is a guy who set up doing home stuff and was so good he started a business. Now does any colour including candies and the car guys love him, so im gonna try him.

Ok, finally had a few mins to get the details....

Black marks for ProCoat on the Central coast (didnt bother to tell me they had blasted holes in the metal, just coated the parts, even the second time I used them when I firmly told him he should call me if he went thru the steel and I would come and sort it before coating, sigh) and also B&K in Brookvale (didnt bother to plug the threads, even tho he said he would).

Dean told me he had a bad feeling about a place in seven hills and I think i also tried to work with them, they had an offsite blaster who talked a good talk, but they didnt want the work really, they just wanted orders like 10,000 outdoor seat frames.

Have had two frames powder coated by PCS in seven hills happy with their work.

Thanks guys, I now have a few leads to follow up. I'll get a couple of quotes and let you know how I get on.
