    I believe Ben at APT Fabrications does powder coating. If it's anywhere near as we'll orchestrated as his fabrication work he'd be a safe bet.

    I had an ARB winch bar done about 2.5 years ago, had a lot of rust under the old coating around some holes that had been drilled for spots. I delivered it, had it blasted, zinc primed and coated gloss black, the bar, plates and various brackets, can't remember the exact cost and have since sold the disco2. Cost was a bit under $200. Can't remember the guy but am pretty sure they were in Amanda Prde , Banyo. I thought the job was pretty good.

    Not assuming anything, But it seems ARB bull bars have a problem with rust and powder coating

    I recon you are correct.

    I do know a guy at ARB,maybe i will give him a call,after the 6th.
    The bar is only around 4yrs old,so i think i will get the cold shoulder...

    The powder coating on the bars on the same vehicle fabricated by ATP,have a much better coating.

    As we all know most ARB bars are made in Thailand,so i suppose the quality may have suffered.

    I have used both Global and APT for blasting and powder coating jobs. Both are excellent
