thanks again for the comments. having a few more pics taken this weekend to hopefully show the details better.
as for the powder, it was done by a guy who works alongside the ginetta race car workshop. it cost £40 for blasting and powdering. am i happy? yes and no. yes as it was really cheap, the finish is 95% perfect and the frame looks so much better than it did before i went. no because there are a few blemishes, namely on the headtube. looks like there are a few tiny bits of dust under the paint and there's sod all i can do about it. at the end of the day though it cost £40. if i'd have done it myself i think i'd spend that much on materials alone. the other problem was tmy own inexperience. i took the bare frame and didnt plug any of the threads. he told me not to wory, he'd sort it but he forgot about the mech hanger. that caused a few problems!
