I'm most probably in.
Is this the Mega Powder Coating trip $50 or so? Or have you found something else?
I've got an old Schwinn that needs some sandblasting and a nice coat of hot pink powdercoat, so let me know when you're going and where and how much it is.

Yes, I need a hot pink powdercoat as well! I'd like to come (if possible) so I can see the colors...
Have you contacted them about a group rate? Are they willing to offer a discount?

I'd like to get at least one frame painted, possibly two.

Yes. They do the sandblasting, along with the painting. From our sources, anywhere between $50 to $60 total per frame.

We're not getting a group discount?
I thought the normal price was $50...

I don't know anything about any group discount. This was to all go out together, to make the long grim trip to El Monte a more pleasurable one. You could call them and see what they charge for 10 bikes, probably at least 9 different colors including blasting/acid-dipping/prep. There is still the thread.

The idea was, see how many people wanted to get a frame powder coated, call the company with the quantity and ask if they would give us a group discount. if 5 people want to go
So far the list is:
Morgan (2X)
Deborah
Elizabeth
JB
Mihai
Paula
Totaling: 7 bikes.
My frame is stripped of all it's bits. of the above listed names, how many have their bike ready to be sent to el monte?
