ACE Powdercoating

I saw a listing on CL last year sometime and at the time I didn't really have anything that needed refinished but they were located about 15 minutes from me so I saved the link ACE powdercoating in Uniontown (44685).

Fast forward to a couple days ago (Tuesday) when I went in with an upper and lower triple tree and a small gauge bracket I made. They quoted me $40 ($15/each triple and $10 for the gauge bracket) plus tax and said it would be a couple days. I think I talked to Ken. He seemed very knowledgeable and looked over my parts and informed me that there were a few blemishes on the upper that would most likely show up. He also said that all the bolt holes, etc would be taped after degreasing and sandblasting.

I get a call Wednesday saying my parts were done and ready to be picked up.

I've never had any parts powdercoated before but I'm really happy with the results, the price and location of the shop.

I'll definitely be going back to have my Gsxr wheels refinished as well as a bunch of other parts from my Kz build.

Here are some pics of the upper triple and gauge bracket before the powdercoating...

My dad had a couple old muscle car bumpers and some other pieces done by Lakeside Custom Plating in Conneaut, Ohio (near Ashtabula). They did a really good job and even redid a couple pieces that were a little off the first time around without question and without charging a second time. I'm not one for chrome but I was impressed.

Later, Doug
