Powder pics


Here are a few shots of some of my recent stuff. This is a 5 star wheel in full gloss black. It's for Brony's Maxi N, which has been shot in Gun Metal and now clear coated. The gloss on the clear is awesome, and when you get up nice and close, you can see a slight metal flake. Nothing wild, just awesome.
In other news, Joel needs to get back to Seattle so I can stop taking pictures myself in the kitchen and let him do it so they turn out nice.

Merry Christmas


Gabe Bandit took a trip to Handy Bikes where I requested that he purchase me the smallest and cheapest moped part they had, and then the other day I got a letter postmarked from Kentucky. What a guy! And on the back side of those Christmas wishes are two stickers that each say "MOPED". I want to put one on my wife's car.

Gun Metal

Brony's frame fresh out' the oven. It's a gun metal gray, and it will get a clear coat tomorrow.
The gloss black 5 stars really stand out against this bike, I think it will look pretty killer if it gets some white decals, as suggested by Mr. Knarpsworth.

Brony Rigid

Responsible Jon's DeLuxe Powdercoat also does custom mopeds. Here is a Maxi N frame I'm working on for Mosquito Fleet member Tony. Yes, this is the rigid that will be racing MF member Dr. Voltron's Plan B racer in a high dollar grudge match. I've boxed up the swing arm to reinforce this little flimsy guy. A cross brace also stiffens the frame up for a colon jarring ride. The rectangle braces look so much better than those bolt in round bar jobs. The largest hurdle in this job was figuring out how to clear the gas cap with the brace. The notch has been boxed up on the inside as well, so no worries there. I should toss it back into the blast cabinet and have it shot sometime before Christmas.

DeLuxe pt3

Check out my new website, www.deluxepowdercoat.com

I've got myself a little business now and hopefully it will provide me opportunity to build some sweet mopeds. I can do bicycle frames, which will include a lot of fixies, car parts, wheels, small jobs and any manner of small to medium objects. I can do many different colors and special effects! Stay tuned to my other page as I add photographs of my work. If you are looking for powder coating in Seattle, give me a shout!
