I see that,pry just how the pattern was layed out,dont know if he can control that,I looked into CRC and got a quote from him. He was double the price of Greg,and both had the same turn around time.

thanks, I'll have to take a look! Im just wondering if it's durable like powder coating, appears so just wanting to know a little more about it. And that skull design is sweet, if I can have designs done similar to that for a reasonable cost I am going to consider doing so, I am planning to do a mild engine build so I suppose I better start my research

The clear coat is an automotive clear,so its pretty durable. Had a guy tell me he has splashed fuel and brake clean on his and they have held up fine. Go on chopsmitty.com and shoot Greg an email,hell quote ya on your parts your interested in doing,then you can compare.
