  • Buell parts

    That's a great looking job on the frame and set of wheels. The PBTP Bonded Black Chrome looks super on all the parts.

          Excellent work - as usual.

          Did you blast the frame yourself, or how do you handle removing the old finish before coating?

            If there's an old finish I'll strip it. As far as blasting bike frames (a pita in my cabinet) and anything larger gets farmed out to the blaster down the road.
            That sounds like the thing to do on these larger items. I don't have a blasting cabinet anywhere close to the size of yours, so I'm struggling with larger items. So far I've found one local guy who sounded like a good guy on the phone... It's good to see others farming out blasting, seems like I'm on the right path.

            Great job man.

He picks up and delivers parts if need be and the stuff is always wrapped up. As a plus he owns a large machine shop so he knows what can happen and blasting is $50/hr, half the cost of anyone else.
              You mean like plastic wrap? Is that to keep the items clean and prevent rust? I've never heard of that so I'm curious to find out more about it...

                  Yes Sir. Any little bit helps,especially in the humid summer months.
                  Aaaah... I always forget you guys have this so called "humidity" thing LOL. I've had my Squareback sitting around for weeks now in just bare metal and there is not a single sign of surface rust. This 100+ and no humidity weather makes you forget a lot of the rust basics lol...
