Powder Coat Color - Silver

Post by Spargett » Sun Jun 14, 2009 12:06 am

I powder coated my fenders and air filter covers. They came out far too grey. A terribly unfortunate event.

I was wondering if anyone has had experience with powder coating silver and could recommend a good silver code from any manufacturer. I was looking at the T009-GR230 from Cardinal Industries

Here's a shot of black bomber out of Los Gatos, CA that was powder coated, though I haven't been able to get a response from the owner.

The owner of the Bomber is in Europe until the 24th. I've seen the bike, and the silver looks great.

I've spoke to Les on the phone. Nice guy. Does anyone have any input before then? Alot of the project is kinda riding on this aspect as of now.

So here's my color options for powder coating the fenders and air filter cover. shot in daylight. I made the (large mistake) of choosing the grey in the top right (H305-GR10). The (T009-GR230) looks like the next closest grey. What do you think? Powder coater said I shouldn't pick any of the white based on colors I showed him. I'm just really hoping that the (T009-GR230) is light enough.
