The trade's own numbers, written down
For custom coating job shops
We work inside the powder industry. We read a year of the trade's own conversations, wrote down every price a working shop stated, and turned it into a rate card and a pricing system for job shops.

"I'm a one-man deal, so if I price a job wrong, I'm the one sweating for free. Ran my bills through the calculator and found out my shop rate needed to be a whole lot higher than what I'd been using. Now I cost it, check the rate card and say the number. If they don't like it, that's all right. At least I ain't paying to coat their parts."
Independent powder coater, one-person shop, Rural Oklahoma"I used to post a picture in the group and get numbers from $300 to $1,200. Now I cost the job, check the card and give the customer one number. If the guy down the road is cheaper, that's fine. At least I know what it costs me to do it right."
Shop manager, commercial powder coating operation, Southern California"The shop minimum card is staying by the counter. Two little brackets still mean a full setup, gun clean and oven heat, and I was basically giving that away. The redo ledger wasn't fun to fill out either, but I needed to see it. No fluff in this thing."
