Best quote I could get to sandblast and powder coat was $180. They said that because it was so heavy the pier would need to occupy a lot of oven time to get it up to coating temperature.
To do it myself would've cost me at least slightly more than $100 for all the preparation and painting supplies let alone the effort involved so I decided to go with the quote. I'd actually already bought all the stuff from Bunnings to do it myself but was able to return most of it unused and get a refund from them.
I decided on "Space Blue" as the colour and will post a pic when it comes back in about three weeks.
