Centipede Mini Restoration
SirPeale:
I guess it depends on the powder coater. I've heard insane prices of like $75 to strip and recoat a door. I've also heard of dudes that do it dirt cheap. I'd at least check things out - IF there were guys that did it in my area.
RayB:
The way to get it done cheap is to have the parts slipped in with other parts being done of the same color, and the guy gets paid cash. Know what I mean?
;)
Malenko:
3fast sends alot of business his way; cant hurt to drop an email, thats all Im sayin. If you have a buncha stuff you want done at the same time and the same color; even better for you.
I wouldn't suggest him if I hadn't used his service before. Just trying to help out a fellow BYOAC'er
ChadTower:
Thought about this some today... while not quite a full stripper, how about a powerwasher?

Peale, where do you live? IF you really want powdercoating, I'd bet there's a powdercoater somewhere nearby. You might want to call some body shops or car/truck accessory places. There are tons of guys that do this kind of work, especially since it can be done with minimal tools. Find someone who is into classic cars, hotrods, or import sports cars. They will probably know someone who does it. My city is only 50,000 and I have run into several powder coaters before, and could probably find a dozen if I really looked.
