Re: Out with the Old, & in with the New
Sooooooooooooooooooooo
Colin and one of his tech buds were ready to toss my ol wheels on, when they realize the powdercoating was quite subpar.
Now I have to tear them apart again, and drop them back off, to be re-stripped and coated again.
Major bummer man.Cam

Sounds like you're in pain.
The remedy is H&R Sport Springs.

Re: Out with the Old, & in with the New
Sorry to hear Cam. I battled the same issue with my wheels. Never building another set of 3 piece wheels again.
I ended up getting my centers painted at stampede instead of attempting to powdercoat againLast edited by onceover; 07-14-2015, 08:30 PM.

Re: Out with the Old, & in with the New
Did you get the faces done at Calgary Powdercoating just off Blackfoot?
Had some work done there recently and was super unimpressed. Was promised my item back like 3 times, not updated once, took nearly a month and the finish was meh. 3/10 would not recommend.
Next time I'm trying Top Gun.Evan

Re: Out with the Old, & in with the New
In fairness to Calgary Powdercoating, Colin mentioned CAW has never received subpar work from them in the past and was surprised to learn where I had them coated.
Will take them apart this weekend.Cam

Re: Out with the Old, & in with the New
Yeah Colin's service is awesome (except when we want to drink with him in the Palace Parkade).
I know I can be needy, and he knocks it out of the park. (texting him at supper time to book me in the next day haha)Cam
