If its an ALu frame then be careful what you do powdercoating it. Some coaters can bake the frame to hot / too long and it causes the frame to lose its strength (worst case scenario, but you get the idea).
Perhaps consider 2 pack paint instead?
all look great, thanks.
Its a steel frame any thing |I need to do before it goes to powder coaters?
Thanks

Are they going to shot blast it first to get rid of the old paint? In which case fill any holes in the frame to stock the shot getting in there (head tube / seat tube + BB).
Cover any bits you dont want paint on / in too.
I'd choose more specifically - some oranges look rough, some are ace, same for any colour.
I thought 2pack paint was banned now? it was made illegal ages ago was'nt it? due to the isocyanates in the mix.
