    Ya 4 sorry. Could you possibly do flat black center with a gloss black lip?? If that is a pain in the ass, just all flat black? And how much would you charge roughly?

                  PowderCoating two colors isn't that hard... On like a cylinder head or wheels or whatever... you could use high temp. tape like i have OR you can take a damp sponge and wipe off the powder you don't want to be on there.... like on lettering on a head or something

                                      "in my experience".... when we wipe powder off (before it's cured "obviously") we NEVER use anything wet because then you have the chance of slight water damage which will make to part look like shit. try just using a dry finger or a paper towel. works just fine. or an air hose. which ever would work for what your doing. Ive worked in a powder shop for over 3 years now so ive seen alot of different tricks. not trying to tell you our way is better just throwing ideas out there....

                                        Ya i'm new to it and trying new stuff, some things work good some things don't work at all...
                                        When i use the sponge thing its just barely damp, wet was a bad word choice.

                                        Do you do wheels?
