I have my car in pieces and the powder coat guy came over to give me an estimate. For the frame, wheels and all my car parts (probably 50 pieces) the guy said it would be about 4K US! That's too much so I'm only getting the frame, wheels and any parts that show blasted and powder coated. I'm doing all the little parts myself. Somebody has a lot of time on his hands! Here's what I'm doing:
These are the filthy parts. I wash them first in a big tub to get the dirt off them:
Then I grind and scrub with and iron brush and get a clean as possible
I then apply a light degreaser to get off the dirt and grime
Next I spray a light coat of Eastwood's rust encapsulator to prevent any rust in the future
Lastly after they dry I box them in a labeled box and it's off to my paint guy where he will paint them with an etching primer
