Frame Painting

[Dave P]

So my Supercross Saturday’s have got a little carried away and I’ve completely stripped down my girls 50.

I am thinking I want to paint the frame and maybe swingarm.

What’s some helpful hints other than getting it powdercoated ($$$)

Anyone painted a frame before? Best type of paint to use?

Thanks for any help!!!

I would use a single stage Industrial paint imron by axalta or endura they are both a little expensive but strong! powdercoating could actually be less $ i would definitely get a price on both.

If you are going the paint route make sure you prep and clean and use a good compatible direct to metal primer otherwise you are just wasting your time.

Not sure if you had any luck with this, but I got a quote for a 50 frame once at $100 from a powdercoater here in Calgary.

Didn't end up doing it, but let us know if you do.

That would be awesome if you could let me know please!

We use jit powder coating here in town, and they seem pretty reasonable. It might be worth the phone call.

I had just googled it, but I believe i was Calgary Powdercoatings Inc.

It was also black that I was looking for, which is a pretty cheap colour I believe.
