What our customers are saying

I dropped off a Yeti for powder coating today after speaking with a man on the phone who said they could work it in as a one-off. I wasn't entirely sure, since I figured most of what they did was probably more commercial or larger jobs. After getting there, I worked with Donny, who was super friendly, shook my hand and said they could get it done no problem. Helped me pick out a color and said they'd give me a call when it was done. Heads up, they don't take credit card, so when you get ready to pick something up, make sure to bring a check or cash. The price quoted to me seemed very reasonable, so I look forward to getting that back and having a nicely finished tumbler.

Took metal patio furniture that is 50+ years old. They sand/soda blasted and then powder coated. Looks better than the day it was brought home from store, most importantly mom loved the new restored look
