I am looking to get a frame powder coated in fort worth.
Does anyone know of a decent shop?
Also what so I need to do as far as prep work?
I applied a coat of black spray paint to make sure some of the bare spots don't continue to rust while being ridden... Any ideas?
thanks

Sorry, don't know of any shops in FW but most powder coat shops will media blast your frame using the appropriate blast material and chemical dip in a rust inhibitor (if steel) before coating it. Depending on the shop it may or may not be included in the price.

There's a place in Haltom City that will do it.....let me ask around and get a name for you.

Longhorn powdercoat. Minnis dr. I think. Never used 'em myself, but have heard good things. Good luck.
