Just a general question to anyone who has had any powder coating done.

I have a front sub frame rear beam and arms and possibly 2 front struts that need cleaned up, was original thinking painting with POR15 but might like to go with powder coating if the cost isn't outrageous, does anyone have any information on how much it is likely to cost or even how it is priced

Many thanks
Glenn

My guy bases it on blastable area. Although I get charged Jersey prices, expect to pay about half of what I pay. This was a quote I got the other day for a front subframe:

"Measure service area,to blast,sand down,zinc prime and powder coat.works out about £100

Regards
Jamie"

I've decided I'll be getting it painted in 2k though

I paid £80 for my rear beam, swing arms and brake backing plates
