Well, these guys are a huge concern in Inverness Velo, its not some little back yard place. They powdercoat everything from motorbike frames and classic car components to wheels, which is their main business. The stuff they have on display is what convinced me to go with them. Its Rimtech just off of Longman road in the middle of the Inverness.
I did email them politely, I was very nice, I didn't even ask for anything I just explained what was happening and sent the same pics I put on here and asked him to see what he thought and get back to me. I left it in their court really. I am just disappointed really as I love the finish, its just what I asked for, but unfortunately I don't think its going to last more than one or two rides before needing redoing. It will just be a straight colour next time.
They didn't get back to me today so hopefully they will in the next day or so. This is the only place I have mentioned a problem, not on facebook or the other forums where its posted. I've not mentioned it.
No idea if they will even get back to me, but I would like to hope so. I don't expect anything so I will just ride it like normal and look after it like normal and see how it fares. At least with the couple of chips it still looks good and I now am beyond that worrying about the new finish stage
At the end of the day its a bike frame and its been painted before so can be painted again. Life's too short to stress over it.
