Frame Painting - Ohio area
Are there good shops for frame painting in the Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky area?
I believe I would like to completely strip a frame and have it professionally powder coated.

Thank you all. I want no controversy - paint vs powder coat. Trust me, I do not know the difference.
I just want a wicked bad orange touring frame that will be at least a little durable!!!

You can get DIY powder-coat kits, if you're so inclined. The hardest part is finding an oven that can take a frame but if you know a friend with a pizzeria that shouldn't be a problem.
