Ive got some valve covers which i would like powder coating in a wrinkle red finish and was wondering if anyone knew of any good powder coaters who could this.

Ive emailed one in Worcester and Redditch, but looking for other suggestions.

The closer to Derby the better

thanks

There's a few coaters around Derby

Millennium coatings in Ripley
Might even get the wheel specialist in Nottingham to sort it?

Done ours on a bench with a heat gun, then left it to dry on our dining room table! An oven finish can make the crackle go too flat. The secret is 3 coats, five minutes apart, different directions, then heat it. Et voila!

Not primed as such, but the aluminium was etched before painting.

Maldon Shotblasting and Powder Coating (if you want it done right) or you could use some of the other methods mentioned (as creative as they sound).
