The C7 colors that I have not yet matched are

Night Race Blue
Blade Silver
Lime Rock Green

I have all other colors. Once the local dealer starts stocking the cars, I will try to match the other colors. I've matched all the C6 colors, other than Blade, because there has been no demand for it, so I don't think the others will be a problem either.

I also have access to over 6500 other colors, and you can see a variety of colors in the gallery on my website, www.thepowdercoater.com/gallery
Nightrace Blue is a 2013 C6 color.

I do have Laguna Blue and Daytona Sunrise Orange now.


Note to all:
I started this business when I was a copilot at a major airline and that airline went bankrupt and cut my pay in half back in 2005. I've been a vendor here for almost 10 years now, but haven't been very active.

In the last few years, we have recovered most of our pay and I also recently upgraded to Captain, and now the flying is much more lucrative than the powdercoating.

I am still coating, and will keep coating. I am however, also, not going to be advertising anymore, as I welcome a reduction in business.

My sponsorship here will end on February 28th, where they will close my threads and delete my "corvette pilot" username.

You can always find me at my website www.thepowdercoater.com, email me mike@thepowdercoater.com or call me at 678-357-5844

thanks for all the support everyone here has shown me over the years!!!!!!!!

Mike did these for me in October 2014. Beautiful work and great customer service! He is currently doing a friend's C7 from silver to yellow (you should be getting them tomorrow) and I did not hesitate to recommend him!
