Vapour blasting engine cases

What sort of prices are we talking about to do a cb350f. Stove enamelling versus vapour blasting?

Depends what cases need vapor or painted.

The whole lot except for the polished side covers.

Vapor prices
Upper or lower crank case from £25 each
barrels                             from £30
Head                                from £25

You can stove the cases yourself with VHT enamel paint and a oven to cure it 3 ratters cost about £20

Had a price of £150 (no VAT) for all the parts in the photo. I guess from your prices Trigger that it's about right?

Vapor is only a finish and doesn't last long. Touch it with oily hands and it stains, then there is oxy

Had a price of £180 plus VAT to clean and stove enamel the whole lot the correct silver. SEP Engineering in Kegworth. Bit pricey but I think that's probably the route to go.

I did my 750F2 with VHT rattle cans, prepared everything as per instruction and baked it in the oven etc, now its flaking on the edges of the fins. A bit more falls off everytime I use it, been filling it in with a large black marker pen and it's quite hard to tell it's there. So am a bit reluctant to go down that route again, although being silver it probably wouldn't be noticeable.

Cheers all.

I bought a NOS in its bag Cb750F2 Alternator cover for my 750 and stripped off the Honda black finish. It came off pretty easily so didn't seem like anything special.
