    Looking to get some suspension members coated (full disclosure, not BMW).   They are all steel.  They will need to be blasted, but are not rusty.

    I was initially thinking to have them Nickel plated, but have come across Cadmium, seems pretty neat.

    Thoughts on a good coating (not interested in powdercoat) and then any suggestions on a (semi) local place to have them done.  Hoping for a decent turn-around and not having to ship.

    Thanks!

      I would recommend E-coat.

      PPG E-Coat Powercron 6000CX is a semi-gloss black electrostatic liquid coating. Think powdercoating, but liquid instead of powder. The benefit of e-coat over powdercoat is it is very good for tight tolerance/holes/features where you dont want coating buildup/uneven thickness. Its a commonly used automotive coating.

      The downside is it is less UV stable than powder.

      Try Swiss-tek or Hartford Finishing
