powder coat ?

gonna have some parts powder coated. was curious about a few things. will the bearing races on the frame, swing arm, and wheel hubs withstand the current and temp of the coating process? or will i need to remove them, which isn't a big deal if need be. but was curious. any other advice about the process? this will be the first time i had anything powder coated so any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.


oh BTW it's a shovelhead frame and parts.

The current is real low, temp is 400 degrees + or - . Most companies will advise if you should or shouldn't remove

claydbal will become famous soon enough
remove and plug the holes, you will have blast medium and powdercoat in every crevice. also, clean all grease and oil fron the areas to ease cleanup! taping just aint enough. oh, screw disposable bolts in all the holes to protect threads also!
