Re: whats this job worth?
It depends on how you want it done and if you're going to take it to them. The media used has some bearing on the cost. There's a local guy here that told me he would sandblast mine for $75. He uses sand only.
One other thing he mentioned is that if I had several pieces to do, he could give me a quantity discount. Something to consider. |

Re: whats this job worth?
Are you going to paint everything or have it powder coated?
a few years ago I did the same thing, and sent all of the suspension part and a stripped rear end to a powder coater. I think I paid about $500 to have it stripped and powder coated |

Re: whats this job worth?
Sandblasting is 140.00 per hour around here, depends on how dirty or rusty your frame is as to how long it takes the guys to do it.
If you can find someone that does both sandblasting and powdercoating or painting you can get a package deal done. I just paid 500.00 to get my SWB frame only sandblasted and powder coated. was more than I wanted to do but it did turn out nice. |
