We are now offering powder coating, titanium anodizing and bead blasting services.

Prices will be quoted on a request basis.
On average, a host with no coating already on it (paint, anodizing, power coat, etc.) will run ~$20. Discounts may be available for batch orders. We will try to figure out a more structured pricing list in the near future if possible.


The powder coating colors and finishes are almost unlimited.
The titanium anodizing is what is shown on this chart http://www.valhallaarms.com/wyvern/titanium/images/ti_color_large.jpg

Here are a couple examples of the powder coating we have done so far.

For now we are processing only small parts that fit into a large toaster oven. This works great for all our laser and flashlight components.
As far as pricing for any finishing process it is based on the particular part. Does that part need special prep or is it using one of the more expensive powders.
That is why we need to qoute a price per job.

Can you give us some guidelines though?

I have no idea whether powder coating is the kind of thing that costs $5 or $100 for a typical host.

Sorry about that, just added this to the first post:

"On average, a host with no coating already on it (paint, anodizing, power coat, etc.) will run ~$20. Discounts may be available for batch orders. We will try to figure out a more structured pricing list in the near future if possible."

Yes pricing will vary, but it'll probably be around $20 per host depending on the details of the host.
