Frame ready for pickup

Powder Coat guy called today to let me know my frame was ready for pick up along with smaller parts. Leaf springs. Hangars, hood hinges etc.

Went with a satin finish on frame and ask him to tone down inner wheel tubs as they were usually a little less shiny. Have not picked up yet but wondering if I should have went the same on tubs? If I don't like we can do again.

Looks good!

I went with 90% gloss on everything, thinking it would be easier to clean. What I am finding out is you can see fine scratches throughout, instead. =(

I just had a few things powder coated in gloss black. The guy told my gloss scratches easier. He asked if a would rather do satin instead. I opted for gloss since my rearend was already done in gloss and wanted my 4 link parts to match.
