Here are some powdercoated runners and plenum and TB.

( these were done befor I got my stuff to do coatings)

I just Ordered the HOT COAT Powder Coating Gun kit with the following colors

Almost Chrome base
Argent Silver Base
Anodize Blue
Bright Red
Mirror Black
Satin Clear
and the Prism Effects

a Gun Rebuild Kit w/ extra deflectors
6 Extra Bottles
Hi Temp Silicon Plugs
Hi Temp FIberglass Tape

ANYWAYS, Im gona try and do everything in the ALMOST CHROME BASE and see how it compairs to the SILVER it is now. or maybe even do the Base in the BLUE.

 

Great, I hope to see some pictures soon. But I think with anything thats aluminum , wetsanding and polishing by hand is best

 

Ya it use to be polished but but I wanted to try something diff. It really cleans up better then in the photos also. but ya only thing better that polished would be chrome.

( Now just send me your waterpump,pullies and have em coated, and polish your t-stat housing) catch ya on Aim again another day leirch Ill hook ya with a free be for doing the chip for by buddy zach)


BTW, if anyone would want stuff done. pullies,runners,etc... Give me a few weeks to practice on a buch of spair crap i have 1st then shoot me some e-mail at tpi383@svol.net

Id be willing to do some cheap work to get some nice looking parts on fellow 3rdGeners rides.

 

TPI383, did I talk to you last night on AIM?

I just had my TPI and valve covers powercoated "transparent blue." It is a medium-dark blue over a silver base coat. Everything came out absolutely beautiful. I had taken everything down to 400 grit except for the plenum, which I sanded down to 600. It sure looks nice.

 

TPI it won't take you much practice the powdercoat process is virtually flawless. Make sure you cure the satin clear at a much lower temp it will scorch and turn gold easily and the argent silver and almost chromes must have a clear coat over them to resist finger prints.

 

something like this?? https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...=Blue+anodized

 

Ya i went and talked to a local shop that does powder, ceramic,thermal,polishing and chrome work. and he said the hot coat kit works great. He said the same things you did also.

Thanks for the info. I look forward to getting everything and doing stuff for the 3rdGen world of people if they wish.
