    Does anyone know of Powder coating frames in the Buxton, Derbyshire area?

    No one have any ideas?

    From personal experience I would go to your LBS, ask if they can do it for you, or if they can recommend someone. I once got a frame done by a powder coating company and it was absolute bobbins (bead from the bead blasting inside the frame), I recently got a frame done by Bob Jacksons in Leeds, proper job £70 single colour.
    Depends what kind of finish you're after, you could always just strip the frame and spray can it yourself using a galvafroid primer and then a hard hat top coat.

    I believe Hope use Windridge in Kent they were a LOT cheaper when I used them 2 or 3 years ago.

    Its worth checking with a powder coater then argos of Bob jacksons, as a cycle specific place are likely to do a better job,

    I took a frame in to be powder coated and explaned which bits needed to be protected etc, and they did't take enough care, I now pay the little extra and get Bob Jacksons to do it,

    Ah cool looking good It's just an old frame at the back of the shed I don't want to spend loads on it, just enough to get it up and running

    Used Triple S in Bingley for various motorbike bits and they are top quality + quote about £50 for a mountain bike frame. Here
