[Closed] RAL Colour help

fleck will be applied as a secondary coating, I think.

RAL will only give a single shade.

Is the fleck not a seperate coating once they have done the black??

*Too slow*

🙁

so the fleck is part of the laquer or is it an additional coat?

like all things it probably depends...

fleck will be suspended in a laquer of some sort to give coverage, whether they give it another coat of just laquer after that probably comes down to what your budget is.

Part of the Laquer IIRC..

best bet is to talk to whoever will be doing the job - they'll give you costs etc and also advise on what process they use.

cheers guys - just spoke to them. Very helpful and have suggested a black with another coat with 20-odd colours in it, visible depending on angles etc....

sounds pretty pimp 8)

My bike is like this but only one colour metal flake in the laquer...hang on i'll get a picture...

I dont think its RAL 9005 (Black) but it does me. I had it powder coated last October and its more than stood up to the rigours of my ridings.

Not the best pic as it was taken on my blackberry and the sun wasnt exactly shining much but i hope you get the idea. I wanted stealthly black but with a bit of sparkle.

dutch - that looks nice! Where did you get it done?

£65 and the only thing i had to do was washer up the headtube, Bottom bracket hole and the shock mounts points.

cheers for that

why does it have to be such a bloody hard decision to make!

Was an easy decision for me especially at that price. My frame looks new again......apart from they've now put a tapered headtube on that model

I meant a hard decision re: colour - not getting it done!

I just got my Turner done RAL 4010 : )

PICS of the thunder 😀

Does it hurt your eyes Isaac?

Awesome...

My Handjob is RAL 4010...

Hopefully picking up the front triangle of my Ventana this week.
Abandoned the idea of polishing after spending all evening doing one easy patch. Gone for a basic metallic silver/grey colour.
And a bit of gay anodising... 🙂

Taki's thats some nice deep red colouring you got yourself there, where did you have it done@ I've had a few things anodised red and they are always slightly pinky, it drives me mad.

And that handjob looks the biz

almightydutch, it was done by anodisersteve from here. They look better in the flesh. Fantastic quality.
If you drop me an email I'll send his contact details over. Great service, posted Mon, got them back Fri.
Look out for me on the Chase, I'll have the gay anodising. 🙂

The ral 4010 looks great! Just dropped my hustler and g spot frames of at the powder coaters this morning to have them done in 4010.... They kept trying to fob me of with the standard 4003 pink, just not as good!

Also considered kawasaki green (not sure of the colour)...

Fleck is extra coat or something they explained, I saw some examples, looks great, but perhgaps a little ott on the 4010.... Would be lovely on black.
