I have used Back To Black and it does seem to do a good job... temporarily. I really just want to give my Shaker a while new finish. I'm really leaning towards having it powder coated. Just have to figure out what color would best go with my scheme. What color is a "stock" Shaker?

Don't paint the shaker, powdercoat it- it is much more durable than paint and will last longer. Hope that helps!

Oh wicked... I've heard about that guy around the Registry. He looks very reasonable. Do you have any close-up pictures of your Shaker or something close enough to where I can see what the finish really looks like?

Motorcityrefinishing.com! I had my coil covers powder coated AB to match my mach, and he did a fantastic job! When I get some money, I'm gonna send him my shaker and have him powder coat that too
