The fastest and cheapest way to get that back on the road, Powdercoat. I ve had frames sandblasted and powdercoated for $50 to $70. Luckily for you, the Benotto is just one single color. You MUST make sure the Powdercoater knows to go thin in the Pantograph areas as they will sometimes cover up the Panto. The color choices available nowadays are broad, you can get some cool bright silver colors and make that Benotto POP..

The fork, back to the Chromer. All the time and effort involved in getting it to look good will never add up to what a chromer can do. Shop around and you might find a spot for under $100.

Do the math, $150 to $170 for a old bike that looks New is a very inexpensive.

This powdercoat on the Guerciotti cost $60.
