Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Did you just ask IRO for extra decals? Did you install them after powdercoating? Did you clearcoat after?

What precautions have to be made before powdercoating? Do you need to grease/vasoline the inside of cavities/tubes? Or can you just painter's tape mask them off?

I am reviving this thread because I am in NYC and looking for a place that does powdercoating. Any suggestions? A lot of places have closed down so I am not having any luck.

I have yet to use them but ive heard Espos out here in staten island does real high quality work, and their prices aren't bad

Downside is that its about as far away as you can get from anything in nyc
