powder coating

[richy c]

thinking of powder coating my front stub axles as they look as if they could go rusty whats the best way?

If rust is your main problem/concern, get the parts galvanised. I got all suspension parts and various brackets plated in the early 90s on RVF. Never seen a spot of rust on them, only an occasional bit of powder from the zinc corroding. Have never found a powder coat finish that lasts more than a year before it cracks and lifts. It's not as durable as you would think.

ill never powder coat mine bits again as it chips then flakes

It will only lift and flake if it is undercured.

Either I'm unlucky, or I've been to 3 crap powder coaters
