yay purple, my car's purple. As for cost, you might be able to find a commerical outfit who'll chuck your frame in with a big batch for free, but you get little choice over the colour. Otherwise I'd guess around £30 if you chose a fairly standard colour, you might well need shotblasting to get it clean enough for the powder to really stick.
Im thinking about this to, haha matt!!! two blazing sexi uni's look better than one😄
How, or where can u get it shot blasted?

but sliver i dunno, maybe not for me, i think id prefer a bright colour pr something. i want to do it more so my unis like not boring with s atndered colour,but saying this i think that the blue on the KH's looks really nice..and i spose thats a standered colour.
hmm i think stu wants to do purple..so ill let him do that and get a different colour for myself.
but yer orange or green maybe.. would have to be a good green though..like a nice bright kind of one.. i just though..maybe yellow..any ideas what that would look like?
I had my muni frame powder coated by a local company (spookily exactly the same colour as Toboggonist's). They charged me £15.
It seems pretty strong (I've chipped it a couple of times dropping it on rocks but it's much stronger than paint) and is very rust-proof (the chrome was starting to look quite sad after two years of Dartmoor's gritty water).
Although mine is not powdercoated, i striped it back and spraypainted it just before christmas. two coats of prima three coats of purple and a coat of clear

and thanks rob..so it is worth getting it powder coated then.. £15 thats not really that much..was the choice of the colour totaly yours or was it a batch kind of thing?
but yer orange or green maybe.. would have to be a good green though..like a nice bright kind of one.. i just though..maybe yellow..any ideas what that would look like?
If you pay full price, and not get it cheap/free in a batch job do you get a wide choice of purples🙄
