[Brisbane] Sandblast/Powdercoater

Postby teamex » Mon Jul 23, 2012 5:03 pm

Just picked up a frame on the weekend and looking to get rid of the old paint as it's not in the best shape.

Can anyone recommend a quality/cheap sandblast and powder coater in Brisbane?

Yes, Lewis and Sons at Morningside. They know their stuff re: bikes.

Again I can vouch for Lewis and Son, specifically Roberto who has his own side business run in the same premises.

Just had my Rapallo frame completely powdercoated and is a beautiful job...really loves his work and takes his time...around 2 weeks for complete sandblast and powdercoat of road bike frame and fork.

If Northside you could try Yeates Powdercoating in Nudgee. They did an ok job for me but Lewis & Sons have a better reputation.
It would not be at all strange if history came to the conclusion that the perfection of the bicycle was the greatest achievement of the nineteenth century.

Thanks Munga, very happy with the job. I reckon it's money well spent.
