Sandblast powder coat frame - Houston area?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello,

Does anyone know a company which will sandblast and powder coat a frame in the Houston Area?

I power washed and sanded the frame last year and the applied the Eastwood system (Rust Converter/Rust Encapsulator/Chassis Black) but now you can see rust starting to come raise up underneath the finish. Not sure if this is something I did wrong... I have all my new parts ready to re-assemble the frame and am trying to decide if I should bite the bullet and go ahead and powder coat or just fix what I have.

Any ideas what the going price is to blast frame, control arms, trailing arms and powder coat? Appreciate any feedback.

You should try to media blast or soda blast rather than sand blast. And use a etching primer. Then you would have been good to go. Getting someone to powder coat is great but difficult & expensive.

I was quoted to soda blast a frame woulda been about $200. Another wanted me to pay for the materials plus $50 an hr so do your shopping.
