Does anyone have experience with a powder coating shop in the Seattle or greater Northwest area? Heck, if it's a fantastic deal I'd even be willing to ship it out, but I thought going local would be cheaper. I want to throw a coat on my commuter-to-be-vintage frame before I go head long into my car-free bike commuting lifestyle. :D Thanks for the tips.

Class Act Paint & Powder Inc., in Portland

They have been painting bikes for 15+ years. Not sure what their consumer pricing is like, but they do good work.

Up here in Toronto I got a quote of 50 bucks to powdercoat a bike frame. This is a place that does parts mostly for the tuner market. So I don't know what the results will be like. They do lots of nice colours. The price included stripping the frame. I told them it was all new work, and I might be able to get a better price.

for that kind of price I'd be more than willing to ship it, though I dont know about the international bit.
