I have been getting my powder coating done here.
http://www.crystalfinishes.co.uk/
They are in Aldershot not far from Marksman bearings and Pegasus Engineering

and shot blasting done here
http://www.elgamec.co.uk/ which is less than a mile from me.
They both do bike stuff all day long.

Dont know if you are still working this end but it may help if you are.

Lots of people also use Doug Cox in Reading.

I have had success and failure with both.

Windsor Finishers ( aka Microblast) were always good when I have used them +44 17536 20145

Cheers guys.

I knew you'd know Al, but thought I'd let the rest of the 'west London massive' get the benefit of your knowledge.

P.S. I alternate between Sunbury and Aldershot now so still very convenient.




Now that you mention it, I've heard of windsor finishers before.

Cheers

The thing I like about Windsor Finishers is that they use Silicon Bungs in all the threaded parts and properly mask off all bearing surfaces headstock etc and they don't use a generic powder coat like some that is used for Garden furniture
