powder coating in east bay area?
So after a failed rattle-can paint job, I'm thinking of getting my old peugeot powder coated and I was wondering if anyone knows any places that they can reccomend near Berkeley. Right now my bike is stripped raw and its getting rusty 
Oh, let me know the price for a frame and fork if you know, I just want 1 color.

Im pretty sure you could sens it the company i worked for(close family friends) and they would sanblast it/powdercoat it any color you wanted(granted you dont want the lugs masked off or something) for less than 80bux.
