powder coating oahu

Looks like tw oahu is going to get a bunch of steel from the mainland soon from the pelfreybilt and mobtown group buys. How many people need preexisting done? And which area is preferred, pearl city or Campbell? Maybe we can arrange something with a local powder coater to get a discount because of the volume of business.

I know we have some members with experiences with the local shops so some feedback on their experiences on price and customer service would be appreciated.

 

I like @hacklerjason's suggestion... I forget the place name, but if he wants to put it out there, he can name it. I did my sliders there and wouldn't hesitate to take stuff back there again (if I still lived there ).

 

I've always had good experience with Sunset PC in pearl city industrial. Always way faster than estimated, and always came out great.

 

Howit kind of new here on TW but I used Mekala Powercoat a couple of times decent price & good work.
Eh Bulla I'm the guy that got those Beefed sliders from you much Mahalo's.

 

Hey! Unko Dane!
When you going remodel my house?

 

Also, my man Keoni just got his booth all setup too. His stuff on IG looks good. Gonna have to give him a try next time. Right next to sunset PC too

 

I live in town and work by aiea so the pearl city options look good to me. I just need to find out of there's enough interest to see if a particular shop wants to offer a discount to tw members since we have 3 slider group buys going on.

 

I'm interested on powder coating deal for sliders that I ordered from mobtown.

 

I might be down. I have sliders and 4 skids coming from Pelfrey. Still debating going cheap and diy um or having a pro handle it.

 

Thanks for posting. Trying to get an idea how many people might be interested before i contact any shops

 

I tried to do my sliders myself. Its a lot of work. Just cleaning them up to prep for paint is a bitch. Now I just let the powdercoaters do it. Usually they sandblast to clean, and give the metal some tooth for best adhesion, then zinc rich primer, then top coat. Should last way longer than DIY.

 

I have my BAMF sliders at Mekela Powdercoating right now 240 for the set for flat black. A friend recommended them.

 

They did my rear all pro bumper and skid plates, came out awesome.

 

Just got my old wheels done at Mekala PC, they gave my old wheels new life.
Fast & cool guys.

 

Looks like mekala is the most popular. I'll try see if they're interested in a tw discount.

 

I'm in for this. Mahaloz @hirod

 

+1 for sunset. I don't have anything on the GB's, but I have taken everything on my truck except the sliders to sunset. Wish I had taken the sliders too..

Professional... Rust is your enemy. Rattle can is easier to blend any touch up, but for sliders and skids which are going to looked scratched up anyway, I would get that good PC base and rattle can any scratches as you get them.

Unless the skids are aluminum, then save money and do those yourself.

 

How much for 4 wheels?

I think sunset is between 300 and 500 for 4 depending on how much prep the wheels need.

 

5 wheels prep & pc gloss black $440.00 OTD.

 

I'm interested
