painting springs/coilovers

the finish on my lowering springs is coming off/chipping/flaking, im going to be sandblasting them next weekend prepping them for paint

my question is, if i paint them with primer then spray paint will it just chip off again because of the compression/rebound of the spring?

im trying to do this as cheap as possible or i would just powdercoat them lol, which then i can just buy new springs for around 300$ or less lol

i am doing this as well so i want to know.

thanks

a few light coats should be ok the more you put on the thicker it will be = flaking … keep in mind though with anything moving that much the paint will wear off naturally.

powdercoating springs should be pretty cheap, my lasy quote was like 30$ a wheel

id imagine a spring would be less

where abouts did you get them done?

I am pretty sure any spray paint will just flake off. The only way to make it last is powder coating.

get them blasted and powdercoated
i got my wheels done for 100 for all 4
i can give you the guy i went to number if you want
lmk

yeah that would be great, u got your wheels done for 100$? wtf. i was quoted for like 60 a wheel when i was going to do my fbod wheels :meh:

thats dirt cheap, i bet that guy had almost that much into powder

but ya deebo powdercoat is the only way it will last
