Picked up a decent Pete Matthews frame last week, stripped it ready for shot blasting and powder coating when I noticed a couple of small dents. In the past when I've taken frames to a mate in my local Nissan dealer, I've filled any dents with resin/hardener etc and its been no problem.. until the garage closed...
I asked my local powder coater if I could collect the frame after shot blasting so that I could fill the dents and return it for the final powdercoating/ lacquering. He said that the filler would fall out during the powdercoating process. Can anybody elaborate please. I didnt think there was a high temp baking process involved and he wasnt keen to elaborate?? It seems hardly worth refinishing and leaving the dents...
