Well, I can vouch for the properties of plastics from working experience.But bringon the powdercoating guy... where are ya? lol

On a side-note, I don't think I've ever really seen many people interested in powdercoating plastic... I personally don't know if its much of an issue of effort, or if just the reality that most people just assume and expect powdercoating to be for metal. It's like paint... most people paint metal, wood, etc... plastic always gets painted less simply because plastic can be molded and coated to be aesthetically pleasing without it sometimes... etc etc.

i do know that plastic can be powdercoated, but i would rather paint my valve cover anyways, its alot cheaper and way less hassle, in my opinion

i found a guy in detroit thats got a shop that does powdercoating. he told me $120 to get it candy-coated. they had my valve cover on display and i noticed it, thats when i seen the v-tec that was bright green candy coated. im going to get this done, and ill put some pics on here for everyone to see. hopefully in a couple weeks.
