T-Bob Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 The way I look at it is Bogus is a real artist, jeez he doesn't doesn't do decals, he hand draws your logos on! One day I'll have a project worthy of that level of work and mix it with some Hasie and the robots for extra vibe. Right now I'm looking for a company to strip and clear coat a frame and I'm not looking to pay R3k as the fame is barely worth rhat. Suggestions? Can you clear powder coat?

When you find that guy let me know.

T-Bob Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 Okay, so my brother in law does powder coating and I've just realised you can do clear powder coating in matt and gloss. So all I need now is some one with a big vat of nasty stuff to strip it down and away we go! Should cost around R750 for the coating.

I stripped an Giant Alu frame with a product called Plascon RemovAll.Worked like a dream. Took me 3 days to do, only because I painted the product on in the evening, washed it of the next morning, and left the frame to dry in the sun. Next evening I painted the areas not stripped the first time, and repeated the process. 3rd day I painted around all the "creased areas" (BB, headtube, etc). Very little scrubbing / scraping was needed, it washed off with water, no effort. http://www.plascon.co.za/packshots/all-purpose-paint-remover.jpg
T-Bob Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 it washed off with water what is this water you speak of?
Wannabe Posted September 12, 2017 Posted September 12, 2017 what is this water you speak of? You can use a small bucket of your grey water to wash it off with.

I did my frame at R&S Powder Coating in Somerset West. Paid R275 and that included sandblasting, pre-baking to get any oil & grease out of the frame and coating thereafter.

Just for curiosity sake, was this an alumium or steel fra,e?
