Bruce, thanks for the info. I'm utilizing the expertise of a powdercoater in Fla, Panhandle Powdercoating. They have an in-house blasting facility, so the frame is never in the weather once I bring it to them. He's done many a resto, and I have utmost confidence in his abilities, esp since I will be right there taking pics for my website....
I'm involved in racing (own a sign business), and the frames that have been powdercoated look like they did when they were first done.
