Powdercoaters
 
Planning on sending my twin engine Gaffrig throttle/ shifters this winter. Changing from white to purple to match the bezels.

I can disassemble and blast the coating off myself, but do I need to do the complete outfit, meaning under dash sides? I'm told powdercoating can be applied over old if in good shape, as far as the underneath side is conscerned. I really don't care if the bottom side is left white.
Can it be an exact match to the bezels, whomever Fountain uses?

Anyone interested in doing this small job? And what preferences are desired as far as prep work I can do?
And finally, and ball park figure $$.
I'm looking at no sooner than 1 month before I'm ready to ship.

Thanks

Look up on the web Exotic Coatings in Romulus Michigan. He has done a done of powder work on my boat. Reasonable cost and superior work. A ton of colors available. I started with Exotic because if Sterling Motors sends ALL of their work to them, they are good enough for me.

when you have them coated make sure they mask off the pivot pin or they will be to tight in the bushings This is on eof the reasons not to coat the bottoms if for some reaon they do get coated us a polisher on a dremel and they will clean right up

If you preped them I would charge $85.00 to do them. I have the purple in stock.

Sounds like a plan. I'm bringing the boat home next weekend, so some time after that within a month I'm guessing. What are your preferences as far as the bottoms? Just leaving them be and blasting the upper of the levers and the base plates clean? I think if we leave the bottom alone, there won't be any issues of PC'ing in the pivots and threads. Your the boss, tell me what you want.

Thanks,
Jerry

Take them apart and blast all of the pieces. I will mask and plug everything that needs to be.

Alrighty. I'll email you when ready to ship.

Thanks
