Getting a bmx frame painted.?

Question

I want to have my frame painted, but I don't want to do it myself. I need to know what kinds of shops I should go to, how much it would cost, stuff like that. Oh and will a shop do sand blasting and paint it? Or is sand blasting even necessary? I also need that paint to hold up to the abuse of dirt/park/street riding. Thanks!

Answer 1

You want to have your frame powder coated. It is a much more durable finish than paint. Search on Yahoo Local Yellow Pages for Powder Coating. You should find something. Should cost about $100.
