Powdercoating Service Details

Finally after literally years of looking we are proud to announce a service we are not just happy with but over the moon with. The fact of the matter is that as BMX frames haven’t changed much in the last couple of years a lot of riders have perfect usable frames that might just look a but beat up from hard use. Our service provides an alternative to spending £500 on a new frame, fork and bars when there might be wrong with what you have apart from the cosmetics. Our aim to to provide an easy hassle-free service with excellent results.



HOW IT WORKS

Select your colour, add your item to basket. Please note colours may vary from monitor to monitor we have used the recommended RBG colours for each colour that best represents RAL colour codes. You can order each part a different colour if you wish, just add all to basket. There are over 220 colours available including special Metallics, Hammered and Candy finishes which will all be listed in due course. If you have a special colour or finish that you want that isn't listed please call or email us. Make sure you give us a contact phone number. We will contact you ASAP regarding collection (this can be done at place of work if easier). Please print off the label shown below in selection of Images and add your Name, address and Order Number so we know what is coming in and can track your order. We aim for a 10 day turnaround from receiving your items to despatching them.

WHAT PARTS CAN YOU DO?
We currently have prices for BMX parts: Frames, forks, bars, cranks & rims. Please ask for pricing for other items (mountain bike frames, etc).

PAINT FINISHES
For Standard colours our default finish is Gloss. Standard colours are available in Gloss, Satin or Matt finishes - please put a note in COMMENTS at checkout which you would like. The default is Gloss, so if we don’t get or note and you don’t let us know we’ll assume it is Gloss and that is what you will get.


CANDY COLOURS
This is a translucent colour that allows the surface of the item to show through. The effect work best on chrome frames (see Hutch Pro Racer frame in Candy Red or Blue for an example) or raw. Ideally this works best on a brand new frame otherwise further preparation is required thus adding cost - please contact us first to discuss. The darker the base is the darker the finished result will be.

CARRIAGE

You need to add Carriage to your basket in the product page. You only need to add ONE carriage for as many items as you can fit into the one box (see size below). If you want to order any other parts at the same time, perhaps a new bottom bracket, just add these to your order and we'll send them all together.
