The powder coating charges are as follows:

We will remove all the old paint, shot blast, prep and mask your frame prior to powder coating.

The prices including vat are as follows Steel frames are £59.25 or £75.25 with a further powder coated Lacquer.

Aluminium prices are slightly more £65.50 and £82.00. We do a few more expensive colours or metallic lacquer which cost more.

Should you require extra components powder coated the same colour as the frame and forks then they will be priced up per item i.e a seat post would be £6.00, if you want additional components in a different colour then the price will be an extra £49 as this is our min charge per colour.

The advantages of having a lacquer coat on the frame are that it will look nicer and be easier to keep clean, the lacquer is also quite hard wearing. You can not have decals put under the lacquer coat as this also requires heat to cure.

The turn around times for steel frames is usually 3 working days, Aluminium frames are 5 days. there is no need to phone and pre book, just come to our reception any time Monday to Friday am to pm, or on a Saturday 10am to 4pm.

Further information and an RAL colour chart can be found on our web site www.armourtexltd.co.uk . We do not stock all RAL colours but our range is quite extensive and we have samples on display in our cycle shop to help you with your colour selection.

You can send your frame to us with all instructions and contact details we will return your frame by courier once paid for in full. (courier charges to most uk locations are currently £20 +vat)
