Powder coating parts... WHAT COLOR?

[member3480]

I have a bunch of parts that I would like to powder coat and just don't want to do the same plain jane colors. Side covers and tappets and wheels ......what color would you do? RED ? GREEN ? ORANGE ? BLUE ?
The nice thing about powder coating is it covers all the bad marks on some parts but not all.

Red has been done to death. Check prismatic and when you check a color they have samples of finished products. From there you can link from one to another. Really helps with ideas. Some candy over chrome base would be great I would think. Good luck!

Hi DaddyG,
Tangier Orange. It's the GM truck color that Saskatoon's Astro Towing uses on their vehicles.
And the color of my Flying Pumpkin

I use the Tiger-Drylac brand Hammered Finish on some of my small parts and on my frames. If there`s any pitting or marks that the sandblaster doesn`t remove the hammered finish seems to cover up nicely. I always use the Grey but it is available in other colors too. The industrial finish is not for everybody but I like it. There are Metalized, Crackel, and lots of Candy`s and Satin`s too.

Engine parts, I just like no paint. For frames I'd like to see this color, looks dark from a distance, but up close it's different. http://www.columbiacoatings.com/store/p/1015-Charcoal-Metallic-Polyester.aspx

DADDYG, make a list of every color ever used on tractors and AG equipment.

Then, use something else...
