Does anyone know where I can get my Star Trek next gen phaser re-powder coated? I would say the phaser in is fair condition and I have heard this can be done.

Are you talking about the shooter handle? Mine's a bit dinged up paint-wise as well. I contacted a local powdercoating place here recently about some legs, they wanted like 90$/hour just to sandblast the oxidization/rust off the legs, and said it would take them 2-3 hours to do just that.. I was out at that point. They wouldn't even quote me on the cost for the actual powdercoat.
Sounds like a small task. I might be willing to do it when I'm back in the states. But what color is the finish? I only have a small selection of common colors (whites, satin and regular black, gray hammertone, have reflective chrome but it is a 2-part type and doesn't work very well in my experience with the infrared lamp setup I have). Rather not have to buy a bunch of powder coat in some color I have no use for.
2-3 hours to sandblast one small part though? More like 15-30 minutes. It's not like its the size of a pinball leg or part of a cocktail table frame. :/
2-3 hours to sandblast 4 pinball legs.
