Elite sucks so bad I should have filed a lawsuit. (this was 2 years ago and they may have improved)

Midwest (carl) for EZ colors, Neals for the rest.

Neals after I has the junk Elite did sandblasted off.

Are you sure we are talking about the same place/person. This is one guy (Dan)... He has done MANY (50+ parts) for the shop, and besides being a shade off in color once or twice, his quality has been better than 90% of the big name brand companies powdercoating. If this is the same guy, was he unwilling to help resolve the situation?

My mistake. It was precision powder or something like that (Cossette Trucking's old building). Elite is the guy out in West Fargo. I have heard good things about him. My apologies to Elite Powdercoaters. Above post corrected.

I know a guy over at Xquizit Kustumz had mentioned he could do my wheels. I dont know if HE was going to do them, or someone he knows. Could go get a price quote from them!

Are they still open? there was an auction over there a few weeks ago. Anyways the frames we got back looked good enough for race cars but I'm guessing they'd spend more time doing wheels.

I guess they were open, until today. Huge fire there just now. And quoting yourself ftw.

It wasnt a huge fire from what i heard. Unless a second fire broke out? I know something happened earlier today. But was told it wasnt anything major. Oh and I kinda take back what I said, Neil is a good guy, his powdercoater sucks. But If you go to them just look it over real good and if you find any flaws Neil will make sure it gets fixed.

Depending on what you want done I can help ya out. I've got a regular kitchen size oven, but I've done a handful of smaller parts with no problems. I've got about 5 diff blacks, a bright red, candy blue, chrome, gold, high temp black, high temp silver and a high gloss clear. The way I do my pricing is usually call up another powdercoating place and charge about half of what they quote. Turn around time is about a week.

Thanks for the help guys. The guy in town here finally got back to me on prices. But...I think I changed my wheel choice.

I fixed the water leak, and talked to neal, the powdercoater there which I have said before is a dumbass, set the oven too high while he was baking expired powder and they had a small fire. At a bad time to because there was no fire saftey system in the building because they didnt turn the water on until the next day.
