the Beast from the East | Thread profile

I have woken the beast from its controlled enviroment. And has been torn apart for some new color ..Ever since I had it powder coated I wasnt happy with it ..first the oven caught fire with the frame in it .. and has black fire char under the clear.. and the clear coat has totally shatterd..everytime I would tighten a bolt the clear would crack and flake off..this time it will be media blasted...

some pictures of the PC

few more.. and ya wonder why.. I have been let down by PC you can see the black under the clear from the fire..in the last picture it looked kinda cool when it was all cracked ..untill chunks started falling off..

Yep,that look's like s&!% Raffa,can't blame ya for wantin to get that 490 looking better than that.And that was a powder issue ahe'? Did the clear have a reaction with the powder? All I know is you are a busy man,just Hurry Up so you can start another machine..

hey pup funny you should say that..#5 has been started as of 2 days ago. and will be a two color bike ONLY..

let me know who you use for PC so I stay away from them. I hope that dude didn't charge you money for that! So what color you going with now?

I don't think I'd hesitate to ask for a refund on that powdercoat job

he charged me $100 for everything that was yellow , everything but the frame was done in the one step PC.. that stuff is holding up great..I payed him 40 when I picked the stuff up and he said forget the rest when I showed him.. the frame was done in a flat PC witch required the clear PC to make it shiny..and was the only part too crack all too hell..I think the clear was put on too thick also.....

Are you going to try and remove the powdercoating yourself? I've heard someone say that burning it off was the best option, but I'd be afraid to try that.

no karma Im not ,,Im takeing it to a place that does..media blasting on big rigs and train cars..they told me that the PC dont stand a chance..with there blaster..So Ill take there word on it and let them have at it..
