If you're looking at black powder coat, he says he does semi-gloss at least once a week, and matte pretty rarely.
He does not strip the existing paint.
I called a few other places I found in the phone book and the cheapest I found was $125 for just the powdercoat. One place was a minimum charge of $500!
Update: I called Blast and Coat which is in Mississauga (905) 625-7739, and to do a black powder coat and sand blasting was $75. I'm not sure the cost of other colours.
Different colours/finishes do not cost any more/less. The thing about powdercoat is the frame
has to be completely free of any oil, grease marks. sandblasting does this. As soon as you touch the frame with yer hands you will leave oily fingerprints behind and these can come thru in the finish. Thats why I use Byers Bush Jetcote. They do the stripping and blasting on site so the frame is properly prepared.
