Can You Powder Coat A Whole Motorcycle?
Mike Hastings of Advantage Powder Coating thinks you can!

Today's automotive paints have a hard time standing up to the demands of a motorcycle finish. Exposure, fuel vapor and rider wear all take their toll on a painted surface. This is not the case with powder coating and yet many people believe that you can't powder coat a gas tank.

Mike has been experimenting with powder coat finishes on motorcycle tanks with beautiful success. "Not only are we able to provide every color imaginable, we can also offer an array of special surface treatments," Mike says. A powder coated motorcycle tank has all the luster and brilliance of the most expensive paint work, while at the same time being color fast and extremely durable. Mike has been painting motorcycles and cars for years. He has put his knowledge of painted finishes together with the rugged dependability of powder coating to create a superior finish process.

There Are Limitations
Plastic parts cannot be powder coated since they melt at oven temperatures. Large amounts of body filler, being plastic, cause similar problems but this can be overcome with special metallic body fillers.

We have used clear powder coating over special art work such as murals and designs. We have found that the heat may discolor these images.
