Powder coating, every time, for me.
Had my first experience of powder coating on a CB 500 Four frame that I converted to monoshock back in 1982. Every experience of powder coating over 30+ years has been a good one.
However, a friend showed me some car brake calipers that a customer had brought to him for "repair' following blasting and powder coating. The people who did the work hadn't removed the pistons, or the bleed nipples and they hadn't blocked any of the orifices in the calipers,[size=1em] hence the beads inside the brakes sitting behind the pistons, which were seized in place by the powder coating.[/size]
