Powder Coating

Postby miazda man » Sun Sep 27, 2009 4:29 pm

It looks like we had quite a bit of interest in the powder coated stuff yesterday in Lakeland!

I created an e-mail address and a Facebook page for the powder coating stuff. If you're on Facebook, please check us out.

e-mail: candy_coatings@live.com
Facebook: Candy Coatings (I think there's another one out there, but ours is the one with the pic of the candy red valve cover)

Thanks, Bob

Is it possible to do an A/C compressor without having to disassemble it, or will the heat from baking harm the internal components of the compressor?

I figured as much. Have to figure out how to get the shell before I have to replace my compressor. Hopefully not too soon though. Thanks.

Well, I just got my valve cover back from Miazda Man. It looks fantastic - he did a great job and I highly recommend his service!

Have to say: Wow! (Despite not being crazy about the color. Purple? But that's just me.) Great work.

Bill, Being Canadian we can't expect you to understand the African Americans low position in American social culture in the 1930's

LOL. Yep, must be a cultural thing, eh? (Just back from The Great White North.)
