Powder Coating Monthly Special

[The_Chosen_One]

Hey guys im gonna be running a Month special on powder coating KA valve covers.

For DOHC covers I will be charging $45 Shipped for Single Stages.For SOHC covers I will be charging $50 Shipped for Single Stages.

Single stages are 1 coat colors such as Mirror colors, Flat, Textured.

Multiple stages are translucents, candies, special effects, clear coats etc.

For multiple stages contact me but usually its $10 more.

This special will end July 11.

wtf you live in boca? How much would it be to do it, not shipped, but if i just drop off the valve cover for you

Id love to do mine in sunset candy orange, like this



if not, probably black, but really really smooth and glossy, like this

But if you got any ideas for reds, let me know, cause thats what im leaning tward, since my car is red. Its a DOHC KA cover btw

[The_Chosen_One]

Oh snap nice. Just knock off $10 for single stage color.

That SR cover is multiple stages, pretty much base coat, candy coat. That would be about $50 locally.

The closest I can get to that color would be Candy Burnt Orange.



I dont have any in stock I'd have to order from my supplier.

If you stuck with the mirror black than $35 picked up.

I only have 2 reds in stock. Super Mirror Red and Candy Red.

This is how my valve covers came out. Its gold vein base with Candy Red on top.







I also have Candy Orange in stock, havent used it yet.

[SketchyRollin564]

Mirror red? that sounds wierd, any pics of that?

And as far as the orange, nah, i just like the sunset one cause its that badass sunset color that i love, plus its more of a redish orange as opposed to straight up orange

How much would it be to get that color?

Im thinking i might go with the candy red or the black for now. How much would candy red be to just drop it off and pick it up?

edit: actually, would it be possible to mix the candy orange with the candy red to get a similar color to that? that sounds like it would be pretty sweet, or maybe one coat of each or somthing

also, where in boca are you?

[The_Chosen_One]

Heres a pic of Mirror Red. Usually Mirror just means high gloss.



its very difficult to try and find sunset orange. I looked at my other suppliers. I have a account with NIC Industries which has 6500 colors and cant find any that hit it spot on.

What do you think about this red.



Thats called Dormant red.

Candy Red would be $50

unfortunatly with powder coating mixing isnt like liquid paints where you'll actually get a different color. Powder Coating is actually a pulvarized plastic so think of it has a microscopic dots and wont mix.

And doing one of each coat will actually make the coating darker because your preventing light from reflecting.

Im across the street from Sweet Tomatoes but I do the work in my buddies garage.

[SketchyRollin564]

Haha is that a mailbox? thats actually pretty sweet, pretty close ot the sunset color. Any more pictures of it? How much would that cost?

Im basically looking for somthing thats like a candy orangeish red, thats more on the red side.

Wheres your buddies garage at? Im trying to see which would be the closest to drop off/pick up and pay. I live in loggers run which is basically the whole area west of palmetto and 441

edit: im lookin and candy apple red looks nice as fck too

any site that i can see the different reds you can do?

The Dormant red would be $50 as well.

[SketchyRollin564]

its 12:43 now and the cars already washed, i just need to claybar and wax it

[The_Chosen_One]

Call me on my cell 561-542-7619 its 1:53 im leaving right now so I'll be at his place in 20mins.

[Silvia14b_TX]

Nice!

Do you do any color for the same price? (single color)

[The_Chosen_One]

if its single stage and I can get it from my supplier than yes its the same price.

[SketchyRollin564]

I saw the one on his car in person, and damn he does a good job! id rather spend $50 on this than half a tank of gas lol

[The_Chosen_One]

You should of seen the ones that came out that day.

[gumby74]

I am really digging that black textured finish.How does your service work if I may ask? Do I ship you my valve cover, coat, ship out or are you selling these on an exchange basis? I have a spare cover laying around that I would really like to have done up.

[The_Chosen_One]

Well theres several ways to do it. You can A. Ship yours to me and I'll coat it ship it back. B. Do a core exchange usually this invovles $50 core charge that is refundable. C. for $20 I go to the junkyard and pick up a cover and not worry about a core exchange.

[MastaYu]

nice! I'm really interested in the Dohc with the candy red.

[The_Chosen_One]

So you want a KA24DE DOHC cover in Candy Red?

is this a S13 or S14 KA? Also are you providing cover or do I need to pick one up.

[MastaYu]

s13 ka24de and how much would candy red be? I guess I will provide my own

[The_Chosen_One]

it will be $55 Shipped. I can probably pick one up for an extra $15

[MastaYu]

$15 for a valve cover and $55 for the candy red and shipping to me so the total would be $70?

[The_Chosen_One]

Yup or $55 Shipped if you provide one.

[brandonDavid]

yeah, so you live in boca, i'm right out in lake worth. how much would the sohc vc and upper intake mani be? haven't really decided on a color, and do you do the prep work, or you want me to sand it down and what not?

[The_Chosen_One]

The prep work is included in my prices. Is the SOHC intake manifold broken down into 2 pieces like the CA is? Im concerned about the sheer size of the IM and if it will fit my oven. But if it can be broken down into 2 shouldnt be a problem.

[brandonDavid]

no reason to worry, just the upper part of the intake mani. basically the brick type looking part. it will fit in the oven. i want both the intake mani, and vc to match, but like i said, i've not yet decided on a color. you got a link to what colors you have and maybe pictures of said color on an object?

[The_Chosen_One]

This is my suppliers website.
