Was quoted $450 today for a blast and paint of a frame and swingarm by a specialist motorcycle paint shop. Thought it was daylight robbery so looking for recommendations for a reasonably priced VMX friendly blasting and painting services in Brisbane area. Who's good and what did it cost? Is powder coat any cheaper? Cheers Steve

Paid $200 in Warwick for frame , s/arm , tripple tree, powder coat. :)
Only took a month.
Good job tho :)

I got my CZ frame, swing arm, engine mount and air box done in Beenleigh for $260. The frame already had powdercoat on it so it was hard to get off.

call o410280675 100 for a frame,paint burn first,beadblast,zinc dip the coated,i week turnaround
very nice work and ive tried alot of guys only to find most p/coaters and blasteres are dodgy as,
they fellas are in their 60s and resto all sorts of stuff and boy do they take pride in their work,
also there zinc plate is the best around 70$per 10 kgs,they prep it to for you

not a big fan of powder coating the black tends to fade to a grey,also if you do chip it it will hold moisture and will rust the frame.if black use kill rust,with the polyurethene,hard but has give and is easy for touch ups
