They have done all my stuff and Tony's S2K and everything has turned out flawless for us, don't know about others results but no complaint from us. Neil's does good work as well though too, from what I have seen.Next time you see them ask them about the great job they did on my corvette frame which cost me 300 in powdercoat (I supplied) which was a candy over burgundy that they swore up and down would be no problem at all. It was the blotchiest joke I have ever seen in my life, they were embarrassed to even show it to me, then said they could fix it.... After 4 layers of powder it was brown and I had to have it all sandblasted which took 8 hours and re-coated by Neils. I should have sued. Midwest will do black, silver and any color going down the production line for racers for a minimal charge. They did all the silver tin work in my corvette and it was flawless. Midwest likes beer.

Screw neils, they are a bunch of alcoholic hippies with no work ethic.
I couldn't care less if they are crackheads and I dont know any of them personally. I have done business with them several times and they have done quality work at a good price and delivered on time. Thats all I care about. -

Maybe they both have new crews now. None the less, I still will take everything I can to Carl at Midwest then to Neils. Powdercoat Pros cost me money and time. I wont do business with them again.I worked for neils about a month ago. They might of got a new crew now, because if they kept to their word about firing people everyone that worked there should be fired by now! I dont know how many times a week someone called in sick because they were hungover! They lost their John Deere powder coat job because they sucked so much!

Dan Thomas @ Elite Powdercoating if you want nothing but the best work done. He has done everything for me from wheels to intake manifoldss to valve covers.

If u wanna do your own powder coating you can get a small setup fairly cheap... I think our gun and stuff was like $150, free old oven, and powder doesn't cost much, only thing is the oven kinda takes up a little space... It's not that hard to use either, I did a fairly good job on some wheels the first time i used it.
