for blasting and powder coating? I also drooped off 4 pre-runner bumbers and he wants $125 each. the total would be $700. I am thinkinog I should get into the coating business.

that dont sound bad. but for 200 hundred dollars you could by a blaster then paint them yourself. plus you could have the blaster for using on your truck.

Thats about what I paid for gettin my rallys done, but that also included clearcoating the rally silver. I think without clearcoating was 35 a wheel

sup ftw,
I dont know who does it, but I plan on going to that rod run that happens every first saturday of the month down at kapolei kmart. I'm sure someone knows over there. I'm not sure but I think the next one is on the 6th of July. I gotta check ron's again.

How's the paint coming along?

Here in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada the going rate for sandblasting is around $100/hour Canadian. To put this into perspective it only takes about an hour to sandblast a whole car shell.

Your price seems a little high, try going to a big rig repair shop, they can handle anything and do a good professional job.

I paid $7 per wheel to have mine blasted. Another $7 each got them primed. I painted them myself with Eastwoods rally wheel paint.
