Great powdercoating shop

Really nice to have in town. Highly recommended if you need powdercoating done in Santa Cruz

Matt Spevak5 years ago

★★★★★

Very affordable price

Brought in a bumper and associated skid plate to be powder coated. The parts were done incredibly quickly, total coverage with zero blemishes, at a very affordable price. I most certainly plan to come back if I have any future powder coating needs.

Quality work and service w/o having to drive over the hill.

Brook and McKenzie provide consistent quality and customer service. Prices are better than reasonable and turn-around times can't be matched. You're treated like a lifetime customer on the very first visit. I do resto hot rod work and feel fortunate to get such quality work and service w/o having to drive over the hill.

Grizzly Powder Coating is great!

I snagged an old Brown Jordan patio table from a neighbor that was intact but really shabby looking. I took the table apart and brought it to Brook and McKenzie to work their magic. 4 days later, I was able to reassemble my beautiful new table! The work was fast, it looks beautiful, and the folks there are friendly and knowledgeable. If you want to freshen up old metal furniture or trick out your Harley, check Grizzly out!

Not your cookie-cutter shop

All my products I dropped off turned out great. Super happy with how helpful they all are. Not your cookie-cutter shop. It feels like family and friends that you are working with rather than a corporate shop. 10/10 would recommend these guys. Best in the biz. Super helpful, great at matching and have tens of thousands of colors to choose from!

Brand new look for the best price!

I can not say enough good things about Grizzly Powder Coating. Both Brook and Mackenzie are very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. I had 6 steel railings that needed to be sandblasted and powder coated. They advised me that I should first have the rust damage repaired, which I did, using a nearby blacksmith. After it was all done, the railings look brand new, and the price was very reasonable. My hat’s off to Brook and Mackenzie!

Loyal to Grizzly

Grizzly Powder Coating has been Ruhne Racing Inc's only powder coating shop for the past 13+ years. We have a super wide variety of parts that need to have high quality coatings and Grizzly always comes thorough with great quality, rapid turnaround and great pricing. I honestly do not know what we would do without them!

Amazing quality and service

Brook really cares about her customers, service and quality of the service. I have been using Grizzly Powder Coating since shortly after they started years ago. This is, by far, the very very best company to use because Brook cares about the workmanship that she does. Don’t waste your time shopping for a better price or service as the prices and the quality here are better than anywhere else.

LET’S TALK ABOUT YOUR PROJECT

A fresh finish
starts with
a conversation.

(831) 818-1593 ↗

GOOD QUESTIONS. STRAIGHT ANSWERS.

A few things
you might be wondering.

How long will my refinishing project take?

Timing depends on the part, its condition, the preparation required, and your chosen finish. Share the details with us and we’ll discuss a schedule for your project.

Can you help with a damaged wheel?

Yes, wheel repair is one of our services. Send photos of the damage first. We’ll assess the condition and confirm which repair and refinishing options are suitable.

What colors and finishes can I choose?

We work mainly with Prismatic Powders and can help you explore a wide range of colors and finishes. Browse the color previews below, or bring us a Prismatic color name and code. Final appearance and availability are confirmed before work begins.

Should I arrange a drop-off in advance?

Please call before bringing your parts in so we can discuss the job and coordinate your visit. We’re open Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–3:30 p.m. Pacific time.

How does powder coating compare with paint?

On suitable, correctly prepared metal, powder coating provides a durable finish with good resistance to everyday wear. The best coating system depends on the material, use, and environment.

Can you work on chrome-plated wheels?

Chrome-plated parts need a closer assessment. Contact us with photos before dropping them off so we can confirm whether your project is suitable and discuss preparation options.
