Here is some work Hardcore did for me as well:
Not the greatest pic (camera had trouble focusing on all the parts) but you get the idea.

paul, how much thickness do you think the powder adds to the surface? ive been thinking of getting my brake calipers done to cover all the grinder marks to make the 15s fit....but i dont want to have the same problem all over again after they are coated

Mike....the coating isn't that much thicker than heavy paint applications usually....if you wanted more I could go more or I can go a little lighter as long as I feel the coverage is good.
MTG......turnaround time depends on the size of the parts and the condition you bring them to me in. If they're large and need to be completely blasted firt it obviously takes longer. I usually try to get things out the door within 3-5 days tops.

What's the diameter on them? I have a feeling they may be too big for my current oven, but I have a guy I can send them out to if you want something that large done.
