Here is the updated list.
Radtexan, Sayre315, Revtoby, hunter7711, Len, Jig Man, MuskyGary, NightProwler.

Let us vote on which supplier that you think we should go with. Here are your choices: Orbitz Powder Coating And Custom Paint Colors And Supplies or Colombia Coatings ColumbiaCoatings.com - Best Powders - Best Service - Best Price!?
Be sure and look around at both sites and compare sizes/costs. The supplier with the most votes by Thursday 2/24 should be the groups decision. And only one vote per person...lol. Please have a dozen or so color and part number (from each supplier) so we can narrow it down to our final selection as decided on by the group.

PS. I tried an experiment with shipping powder paint in zip-lok bags and will be getting the resuts soon. It was shipped USPS from Ohio to Louisiana.

I think the price per pound should be included with your color selection and a part# if it has one. That way we can go and look at what everyone has choosen.

I will be first to vote I guess. I spent some time looking, comparing and doing a little research. I really saw some colors I thought were awesome from both sites. I read somewhere that mixing clear with base colors create a candy style of paint and maybe someone who has experimented will add some light. For me, I will be painting jigs from 1-oz to 1/100 range and I think some of the fancy textures are over-rated when it comes to the fishing part (however the fishermen part...well......). I also like the idea of getting more for the money and then I can experiment mixing colors/glitter and not be worried to much if I don't get the results I want. I do wish they both carried chrome, because I will have to have some soon. So as you probably guessed by now, I'm going with Orbittx. Their prices just can't be compared. And clear will definitely be on my list.

I like columbia and their prices are about the same for the colors Orbitz provides they are more expensive with specialty colors but thats kind of what im looking for.....Im personally looking for awesome colors and a great deal by buying in bulk....if we buy just standard colors the prices are the same.

[sayre315]

I agree Rev. Im gonna have to go with columbia + they are having a 10% off deal.

[MuskyGary]

I will vote for Orbitz because the smallest size is a pound and you need a bunch of guys to split it up. Columbia coatings sells in 2 oz. up and I have ordered a bunch of their colors before (good stuff!) but because of the smaller size you can always order from them alone.
