not reccomended to powdercoat.. that's why i'll be using that one paint.. made for the high temps a pipe gets up too... as for the cans.. i'll have to tear the pipe down.. and paint the rivits/caps... Velo.. what did you use? do did you just powdercoat?

I just called my buddy on the Nextel. He said he will powdercoat your can for 50bucks. Just trying to help ya out. He said it wouldnt be a big deal. If you want it a "glossy" black that might cost more. It depends on if he has the Ultra clear hard powder. LMK:hellobye

If you take it apart he can probablly do it. His kiln isnt huge. You dont have to send it anywhere dude. Just meet up with me and I"ll give it to him. He said the sandblasting will take the longest. He can have it done in a day from what he says. He is a good friend of mine so I trust him. I have seen some of the wheels and car parts he has done and they look sweet. This will be the first Exhaust can. LMK if you are still interested.

I take it back. I talked to the guy. He said he has done a few exhausts for dirtbikes for friends of his. He said pop out the rivets and replace them with alan head screws? IF anyone else wants any stuff powder coated like wheels and stuff like that. Just let me know. I'll hook my forum brothers up. :fact

I just saw the contact info on the wolfpack page. Let me know when you get it torn down. We can go from there. No reason to put the cart before the horse. From what he said You just need to take off anything you dont want sandblasted and painted. I'm assuming that means the Decal.
