    i have heard they pay like $200+ to get it done.

    no matter what you do, one trick I liek to do before i take any frame to get treated or paint it is to run a tap through all boltholes to ensure threads are perfect and no rust is in there.

    I'm thinking about doing this as well. Would it be $200 for blasting and painting/powdercoating? In fact, call me crazy.. but I would love to have a Kawasaki green 200x.

    ^ They may work fine.... But Eastwood has a gun on sale often for about 75$ and it's a quality gun and what myself and a few members have been using for awhile.....

    Harbor freight stuff is about 50/50 sometimes the product itself can vary from package to package. And, I'm certain all ther stuff has lead paint

    Grab a free oven on Craigslist, some acetone and pick up a plug kit with some tape and your COATING!!!!!!!!!!
