Default Powder coating companies

Hey guys, might be looking into getting some parts powder coated here in the near future. Need some names and reviews of companies you've used. Prefer the local guy than any out of state vendor. Seen one in Clinton, Central Mass Powder Coating, and was wondering if anybody has used him for anything.

Thanks!

I have used Nu-Chrome in Fall River on a few dirt bike frames. Fast turn around great prices and easy to deal with. Granted it was over 5 years ago But the same owners are still there. Give Em A Call!!

Nu Chrome sucks!! My friend went through hell getting his rear bumper redone on his Road Runner! Over a year to do it and they still screwed it up.

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

People who have had things coated how did it hold up? It seems like everything I get that was once powdercoated is all flaking off and shitty lol...

I've never used them for Powder Coating, but there is a local Auto Repair Shop here in Bloomfield CT that does it on the side: Burhoe's Automotive

You can try calling them and inquiring..... They are car guys at heart so I'm thinking they would be decent to work with!
