Powdercoating problems

Thanks for all the info. I've decided to buy a Dremel and remove the paint from all the mounting holes before touching it up. I scraped some out of the rear iso tube and it felt hard but brittle. So am hoping it won't lift away at the edges. Am not happy having to do this, was originally going to do it 2 pak but after waiting for 3 months to get various machining jobs done the painter only had a few days to do it before shutting for Christmas. So had to decide between getting it powdercoated before then or waiting another month and double the cost. Got frame, cradle and swingarm done, still waiting for the rest so turned out to be a bad decision. Oh well, it's been 12 months so far, we've had heaps of earthquakes in the past 18 months so at least haven't had to worry about the bike getting damaged.
