Hey all. If anyone is interested, I was tinkering with my sled after I bought it, pulled it apart and wanted to get some powder coating done. I went and bought a sand blast cabinet, oven and a powder gun. I figured I would try my luck with it. Turns out it came out really good. I will upload pics later for examples. So one night, me and my buddy were chatting in the shop, and we decided to take on some business. I have done a few skids now, a arms, bumpers, spindles, shovels, brake calipers, you get the point. We were thinkin about trying to start up a backyard business I guess you would call it. I have a few local s&m'rs for reference of the quality of work. My oven is kinda small, only thing I can't really do is rails, which sucks I know, but whatever, in time I will pick up a bigger oven if we have enough interest to make it worthwhile. Anyways. My prices are fair, especially seeing as we're just starting up. If anyone's interested in getting some stuff done, let me know. Doesn't have to be right away. We don't have a set rate yet, we havent discussed that far ahead. If you're really interested just pm me and we can discuss it. We are located in fort mcmurray. Thanks for the interest guys, Kyle.

Good for you guys as it will be nice for locals to get things done without sending to Edmonton. Alot for small things to coat than just sled parts as quads,household items ,shop parts and the list goes on and on.
Good luck guys and be aware of the city and small shops working out of there house. Seems like everything needs a licence or permit for tax reason.

Thanks dude! Yeah I'll have to look into that I guess. I don't think it will be a problem as of right now tho.

Hey I live in Fort McMurray and was wondering if you could powdercoat a trike frame or if you knew anyone that could?

Thanks Steve

Hey,
Unfortunetly I recently moved into a newer house, but lost a lot of garage space so I am yet to figure out what to do with the powdercoating stuff. At this time I am not taking any more orders. I would try impact coatings in edmonton, they do a very good job. Sorry.
