    Does anyone have a reliable source for getting parts sandblasted/powdercoated?

    I have also seen a few people online with instructions for sodablasting/sandblasting using air compressors, anyone with experience or complaints about this?

    b reel, calling you sometime probably this weekend about checking the straightness of this engine case and cleaning it up. Also checking the head, crank etc etc. I plan on going over everything myself to learn and then bringing it to you to verify I'm not retarded. The bringing in of parts will not be for another week or so.

    I can do the whole fucking trailer if you want. Small oven 8'Hx12'Wx20'L but you'll have to pay of course.

    which wheels? If O.E. Fuch wheels then they may have to be soda blasted, Dye-checked and painted depending on the type and year made. I'm not that far away, just come by one afternoon

    lol, the trailer's aluminum and probably pushing 25'+, but we definitely need to look at the parts. Hit up Nicad or myself when you're in the area, sunset in a cove while shooting patron (in your case) doesn't suck

    Brian,

    How much for a set of 08-11 BBS in white? Otherwise, I'll probably just hit up millers.

    Thanks,

    just call Miller, if you had them down here yesterday I could have had them done for next to nothing. Just did a run of white gloss, 250 pieces of pure hell.
