Who does your powdercoating?

[alfanta]

Who does your powder coating for your projects? do you do it yourself? or is there a reputable person around where you live? Or do you ship it to the other side of the country?

I have some parts that I need powder coated, and I have been looking at a few places.
Has anyone used any of them?

This one was reccomended to me by my work (D&D Classic www.ddclassic.com) where we restore cars.

This one I was told about by someone in one of my design classes at UC. The part he got back looked amazing, but it cost him a pretty penny.

Let me know if anyone has heard of these or if you know someone else that is good.

there's local place that does powdercoating, another place does ceramic coating, and pretty much any other industrial coating you need. I can powder coat in my garage, just need an oven. Already have compressor & powdercoater

There are people EVERYWHERE that do it, I just dont wanna dish out money and end up with it cracking off after a year. I am sending 2 emblems that I cast in aluminum, one to each of the links that i had above, both are goign to be done in black mirror finish. I will see what one looks the best, and since i cant age the products t osee how they hold up, I will just have to go with my gut unless someone has had experience with either. although the Aesthetic Finishers is probably who I will go with. We use them at work, like I said and I havent heard any problems, Im just curious what other people's opinions are.
