Hi Guys, can anyone reccomend a good Shot Blasting and Powder Coating Firm in the Solent Region? Portsmouth/Southampton/Bournemouth area? The mankiest Speedlines ever known are in need of some extreme TLC!

Theres a couple of places in So'ton.

Do they clean them up before hand? (bead blasting or something?).

Like a said, not certain if they shot blast but they do have a load of pre painting preparation processes, more than any of the other paint companies we have tried. I use them to paint die cast boxes and we send them all covered in machining swarf and oil and they seem to deal with that. Don’t know whet they would do with rust and flaking paint, suggest you pop in and ask. They are on the industrial estate in Totton, when you drive onto the estate go right to the end of the road, turn right and they are a little way along on the right.

I spoke to the Wheel Specialist, but he hasn't got the kit to do it.

Just saw this pop up again. I found a place in Portchester called K and N Finishers. They have shot blasted, primed and powder coated my speedlines and they came out looking great.
