Metal Cleaners on National Ave has been a long standing choice amongst many of us. They only do single-color powdercoating from what I've heard, and it's relatively cheap. If you got deep pockets, or just want some eye candy to look at, check out http://www.spectrumpowderworks.com/. I've seen some of their stuff at the North American Handmade Bicycle show a couple years back and it is truly special. |

| I first went to Metal Cleaners, but was underwhelmed by their color selection. I ended going with Jackson Powder Coatings. The guy works out of his garage and his prices started at $120 or so. He can also do some interesting stuff like multi-coat pearls or candies. I got my frame back in a week or so and am happy with how it turned out. |
