    Post Free Fade Powder Coating

    I have found out a way to fade powder coating. I need 2 mag bodies. I will powder coat them for free. I need some testers. The first two people to be willing to send me there body let me know. I need some one that wants a Black to anodize blue fade and some one that wants a black to anodize red fade.
    I have a pic of the black to red. This will be a test to see how durable and well they look so I am willing to do it for free. If things go bad I will strip them down and send them back to you black.

    Flip540; Actually, Im sending in a Minimag body presuming he doenst want just Automag bodies... plus I think hes only doing two total, One black/blue and one black/red. This is all just speculation though.

    Ive seen the example of the black/red fade, and it looks gorgeous! I hope it does work out, it'll look great on a 'mag... I'll post a pic when I get it back from him. as for price, I think only redrider can answer that at the moment.

    Thanks for all the interest. It really doesnt matter if it is a minimag or an automag. I wanted to try it on a stainless body. I can do red to black not just black to red to black. And the same with the blue.
    Xzion thanks for posting the pic. I would have done that if I new how.

    If this works out I will charge an extra $5 more then the reguler colors. So that would be a wopping $20 plus shipping for a anodized and faded mag. I can't wait to see the reaction on the feild with one of those!!
