We ave our Derby covers powder coated before our process, but it is with a different chemical for the gas infused image. WE could not separate out the finishes on the cover. We put the image on the cover and some airbrushing, but mostly the image. I hope this helps. My email is chryle@gmx.com. But I also received a message when you posted.
Sincerely,
Cheryle
I think I am going with this option.

I pulled the trigger on the image and a Black background from Cheryle.
I will post up the pics when it gets here and I put it on.

I think I have a starting place, but any advice might get me going.
Thanks in advance...
You probably found someone already but, I use Etchings by PIG. They do excellent work at a reasonably cost.

Sandy took a toll on them and the timing was not the fastest, however I know they took time to get it the way I wanted it, which speaks for the quality and attention. Cheryle is my only contact and she explained that she had to oversee it to make sure I was taken care of.
My experience with them is top rate because I am not worried about time as much as quality in this case.
