James made my dirty, stained, and corroded 56 year old parts look like new. I am very pleased with the results and James is a very knowledgable and friendly person to work with. Highly recommended especially if you are restoring a vintage car. The vapor honing process is gentler on vintage parts and cleans without changing the surface finish like sandblasting.

Hooks Mobile Blasting was an epic find. I drove my 1970 Cutlass Supreme from Las Vegas to Chicago…read moreto restore it with my father in Chicago. I found Hooks on the internet and contacted him to get a quote for the entire car and a set of Rallye Wheels. The price was great in my opinion, so I set up an appointment to have the care taken down to bare metal. Hooks came out to look at the car and give a quote and then we set the appointment. Hooks was on time the day of the appointment and got to work right away. The entire process took about 9 hours, which when you compare that to stripping the paint off with paint remover or 40 grit sandpaper, I think you'll agree that this is the way to go about getting your vehicle taken down to bare metal. They blast the car with a sand and glass mixture and pump it through a pressure hose with liquid to cool the steel so it doesn't warp. They also add a rust inhibitor that lasts 3 days so it doesn't flash rust. Once the surface is stripped it is ready for primer within 72 hours. I can not recommend Hooks Mobile Blasting enough, he was professional and kept me in the loop on everything he was doing and things he discovered during the blasting process. And, when it was all finished, he cleaned up the mess left behind. Pat Hooks is just starting out with this business and already he's hitting home runs. Thanks again Hooks Mobile Blasting.

Kaylinn and her dad (whose name I unfortunately did not get) did an excellent job with both tasks. They were friendly, courteous and professional in their demeanor. As the tie down hooks in the bed are bolted verses welded in place, I asked Kaylinn's dad if he could remove them prior to spraying the bedliner. He not only readily agreed but offered to powder coat them, any color, gratis. (I didn't take him up on it, but I was very appreciative of the offer.) The job was done in a timely manner and at a very fair price. I highly recommend Midwest Customs!

For about a year, I had been looking into different companies for a powder coating makeover, but for one reason or another, I never moved forward. Then a friend recommended Fox Valley Sandblasting and Powder Coating, and I'm so glad I went. From the beginning, they were honest, professional, and clear about exactly what needed to be done and what the cost would be. Not only did they deliver exceptional work, but they also took care of the missing rubber bottoms on my equipment. My chafing dishes look absolutely stunning -- like brand new. Their customer service was truly out of this world, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional service, beautiful results, and competitive pricing. I wish them continued success and can't wait for our next project together!
