Re: [DML] Powdercoated DMC frames experience anyone?

[Martin Gutkowski - DMC Ltd <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Powdercoating is basically a plastic finish that's sprayed on as a 
powder, then melted in an oven. This gives a uniform, hard, bonded 
layer. Is it better than the original epoxy? Almost certainly, given the 
uniform nature of it.

Personally, I'd investigate Nylon Plastic-coating. Applied in the same 
way, but the material is about three times the price, but the finish is 
really really wierd. It feels almost soft to the touch and nothing will 
stick to it - it's what springs are usually done in because it's also 
flexible.
