Sorry but I hate powder coat,, once you scratch it,,, it's hard to touch up. Also how many 30-40 year old frames are perfect? Powder coat over dings and pitting looks like" bloody hell" !
With Paint, if you scratch the bike you can have it beck to new in snap. BTW, I fixed the spot today on an Hour and I'm back to clear coating on the morrow. :thumbsup: I do own a few powder coated bikes but they will need paint to make them look perfect.
Makes a good primer/undercoat though. :thefinger:
