Yeah, He is still learning for sure. Trying new tricks and ways to do it. He charges insanely cheap compared to the competition and he is very picky. I know Pat had some knuckles done that had a small issue. Not sure if it was because of how course the metal was or what. But this turned out really nice.

Well I'll have to hit him up to do some of my stuff in the future. The place I've been going to charges quite a bit, and isn't particularly quick. Does he do it like right on the spot if you swing by?

Depends on how busy they are, him and his gf do it but also work full time. He turned my valve cover around in 3 days. Basically blasting and cleaning to powder coating.

Gotcha. Yeah it's just a bit of a haul so I'd totally sit around for an hour vs. drive back n forth. Back when I did PC'ing on the side, that's what I usually did. Scheduled a time with someone and they came over and we did it right then and there, usually. Not always, but usually.

I thought it was good work. But then again, it was my first PC'd part I ever done. The price was amazing and the turn around time was even better. He did a really good job for just learning.

The only "issue" was when I was hammering down with my 1100 ft-lb of nut busting torque beast of a impact, the paint chipped where the bolt met the paint.

Other than that, I should take a picture of the knuckles now to see how well they have held up thus far. You know, with all my "off-roading" I do now(I've only gone hunting once,aka drove down a dirt road LOL)
