Wasso Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Looks almost leopard print. I will need to chat to you about a certain colour soon. But can only be done on a polished plenum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries that's 2 coats on that base plus lacquer - it's different at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-350 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I need to get a spare plenum and powder mine! Keyser, if I provide the powder you can do mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want one I need to get a spare plenum and powder mine! Keyser, if I provide the powder you can do mine There is a few hours prep in getting the Plenum cleaned up ready for PC you know I do want a volunteer or 2 though - I want to try chrome and I want to try silver - I have a few other colours that would be fun as well. My main concern on chrome is how well it would last but if anyone is willing to be the "tester" and can get down here (I'm in Bournemouth) to swap the plenum drop me a PM. I will do the plenum in advance as I have a spare - so I know the finish is OK and it will be a straight swap on a DE engine. P.S Bring doughnuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 Dave - we need to talk I'll take any powder just to try - I also need a supplier that can do small quantities i.e. 1KG Did you want to try the chrome? or did you have a different colour in mind from mum!?

Ha, yea I am up for the chrome! I don't even mind being the one who puts the elbow grease in to prep of the cover! I will see what I can grab for you. Not only do they do powder coating but they do Microsheen anodising, PVDF, PTFE and metal fabrication. So something like Wasso' plenum spacers would be a piece of cake to make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Stuff it, I'm moving to the south coast! I'd love my plenum powder coated in orange or chrome but too much hassle having to park the car up for a week while I ship over... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
