got frame back

well I got my frame back from the blaster the other day and what a crapy job the guy did I droped it of on a wednesday and he told me he would give me a call when it was done. I didnt hear from him so on monday I called him and he told me that its been done so me and two of my buddies went to pick it up the next morning and it looked like crap. he missed a lot of spots and half did the rest. He trid to say it was surface rust from sitting until I came to get It. He also doubled the price on me. He told me it would me $120 for the frame and when I was picking it up he said since I had so much more to get blasted ( crose members ans A arms) it was $240. argued with the guy for a few minutes and I gues he thought we were going to beat the crap out of him cuse he lowered the price to $180. So I paid him brought my parts home and spent the rest of the week cleaning the parts so I could paint them with POR ( and boy are they right about that stuff once its on your skin it wont come off) but I finaly got it done now I just have to reasembloe it.

Thanks for listening to me vent.

Man, bad deal. I lost a 400 poncho on a deal like that with a machine shop. Hey, FYI... Make sure your frame is not smooth before you POR it. It needs a ruff surface to get a bite. If you wire wheel it, it will peel most of the time. Anyway, your frame is going to look great. Pics are always cool
