Any Melbournites know a good Powder Coating place??
I have a scope tube I want done and have contacted several Eastern suburb places via phone and email in the last week with no replies. Makes me think business must be so good they don't do small stuff :mad2:
Might have to do a DIY with a spray can at this rate.
Cheers

Matt, I would suggest you get some etch primer and spray that yourself, then sand it lightly and trot along to a nearby Automotive Panel Shop, and ask them to paint it when they are next doing a car of the colour you want the scope to be. I have done this previously (years ago) and ended up with a beautiful Pearl White OTA.
As they will already have the paint mixed and booth booked the cost to you is reasonable.

Good luck !
