Powder coated thread!

So i just picked up my frame and they have gotten powder coat in the bb shell. Not loads but it has gotten into the thread!

anyone had this problem? any solutions?

will nitromorse do it?

Ta

take it to lbs and get it chased and faced.

ha i thought this was going to be a thread about powder coating!

Can anyone advise on how to get decals made up & can you get a clear powder coat over the top or do you have to get a clearcoat sprayed on? Does the powder coating heating process melt the decals?

Cheers

Me too Claire.
That is a good idea though. To get group coats together.

I'm looking to team up with someone for white powdercoating asap.

i's be up for a white powdercoating, at the end of the month.

Nice one, I have 2 rims that need doing what are you getting done?

just a frame i think. might have a look round for other stuff to chuck in. it's £40 a colour right? can we get anyone else to come in on this?

i'll be down on the 28th for about 5 days so if we could get in and turned round before i return to Manchester i am in.

I haven't phoned armourtex yet but from what I can gather they now charge per component with a minimum order of £45. I don't know if you are after clear coat or not but I think the frame will probably cost around £40 or £50, no idea how much my rims will be though.

oh right, i thought it'd be £40 shared between us. Not sure if i want to spend £40 getting this frame painted can't really justify that, it's a raleigh chiltern i got for £20.

sorry don't think can afford it mate.
i'm out.

Ok no worries, anyone else getting stuff done in white soon? I really need to get these rims looking nice again.

Hi all,
I'd be quite interested in white powder coating of a frame.
I live at reading. Where about is that powder coating company that you''ll use?

what i want to know is, say you want just your frame powdercoated do you give them your bike and they take it apart and coat just the frame or do they expect you to give them just your frame?

They expect you to give them just the frame minus components... i think they may have a headset cup remover on site if you struggle to extract yours

Thank you very much.
It's a bit to far for me unfortunately.

Another one bites the dust, has anyone had any luck with asking armourtex to put items in with someone else's (a stranger) job? I can't justify £45 on getting rims made pretty again but they really need doing.
