Powder coat wiper arms

[Andrew[MG]]

Does anyone know who would do this in Glasgow and how much it would cost? Mine are a bit of a mess and I'm guessing this will be cheaper than the £80 for two new arms!

You could try Mike the polisher Andrew, Don't know the cost. He'll just slag you off and then agree or not agree to do them. He's on 07813083028

FTO wiper arms seem particularly pish for longevity of finish. My son's ones were the only scabby looking thing about the car.

Seems to be the case. They've been rubbed down, primed and painted before and the finish didn't last long, that's why I was looking at powder coating.

Just remember the 6 Ps rule:

ffs you really need to man up and use your initiative Andy.

Use google, there's quite a few powder coating places about.

I thought you were supposed to be the seo webmaster type guy????

Two that i've used recently are:
chameleon in renfrew (where I got my wheels done)

or

aaztec coatings in Hillington (where we send our electrical control panels to get done and they've also done parts for my mates big green van).

...load of pish...

10/10 for not reading the question. I was looking for people who would actually do wiper arms and how much they would cost. If I had wanted to just phone everyone in Glasgow who did powder coating then I would have done that without coming near Pistonheads.

These guys did a set of alloy wheels for me a few years back, they were quite tricky (Merc turbine multispokes) and did a good job at a very reasonable price, when I was dropping off/picking up the wheels there were various parts of motorbikes, mountain bikes, suspension components etc, so I think they do pretty much anything. P.S. you'll have to look past the fact they are based in a horrible little yard near Possil!
