I had a bunch of old metal tables and chairs that needed a refresh. I went to one company, and they told me to go home to completely disassemble the tables and pull off all the rubber tips on the chair legs, which would have taken a while. Instead I went to Reliable. Alfredo at Reliable disassembled the furniture, even replaced a few rubber tips, and did a beautiful job restoring the furniture. I think I have at least another 20 years of life in the furniture. Large clean workplace, everything done on time and to a high quality. read more

Fast turn around time. Over all paint quality is ok. Price is reasonable. However i found a deep scratch after installing my part so it's not worth my time taking it back to get it fixed. They should have better quality check read more

I wish I could give these guys more than 5 stars! Took two wheels in to get powder coated and let me tell you it came out absolutely FLAWLESS. These guys definitely take pride in their work. Turn around time on the wheels was quick. Service was 10/10. Thanks again guys! read more

What more can I say about the quality of work, it is absolutely superior and the turnaround time was great. I brought over three rusted/painted bumpers. Alfredo and his crew knocked it out of the park. The value was amazing and kindness of the staff was great. I will continue to use them for all my home and automotive services. read more

I have has four or five bike frames and forks powder coated and they have always done a particularly good job.

Shawn and his team did an awesome job with my rollcage. I emailed him with rough dimension estimates for a quote that I was more than happy with and he stuck to his word when I brought it in. I was in and out in less than ten minutes and within a couple weeks it was done! When I went to pick it up I was -that- guy who came in shortly before closing (sorry Shawn!) and Shawn still made sure I was able to get my cage despite the hectic end of the work day. They also remembered to mask off the areas that needed to be covered even though I didn't make a note of it anywhere, super grateful for that! I'm definitely going to be coming back with other auto parts that I need coated, I'll be recommending Reliable Powder Coat to all of my friends. Check them out! I've attached photos of the cage, a super sparkly silver (GR1342) with high gloss clear (CL01). read more

Had a set of wheels done and have gone to other shops prior and the results here are the best I've seen. This place is huge and industrial. Shawn and his crew did an amazing job on my wheels using, per my request, Prismatic Powders. Turn around time did take some time due to Covid but well worth the wait! This will be the only place I would go from now on for any Powdercoat jobs in the future. read more

I had Shawn sandblast powder coat my AISIN Manual Locking Hubs for my 1998 Toyota Tacoma. GREAT value and it turned out even better than I expected. It really makes the look of my truck. I walked into his shop and saw giant 40ft structural beams that look like they're made to support airplane hangars on one side, and something as small and insignificant as a valve cover for an engine on the other side. He really does work on anything and everything. Thanks again Shawn. read more

Did a really beautiful job for a small project. I didn't even know powder coating was a thing, but it is and these folks do it very well.

Had a small job, which was a couple of outdoor railings for our front steps. Was treated well even though the job was small. I felt the price to be fair and the results were awesome. Took just under 2 weeks. read more

As others have said, the actual name of the business is Reliable Powder Coating. We had them sandblast and powder coat a small two horse trailer originally built in 1966 (see photos above). It had thick coats of paint and lots of rust inside and out. The owner, Alfredo Hernandez, gave me a GREAT price and his team did an EXCELLENT job. I couldn't be happier. They also worked in perfect harmony with Barstad & Donicht, Inc. (the company located down the street that I had do the steel fabrication and hub repair work). All of them went above and beyond, and I now have a classic horse trailer that is as good as new! read more

I have used this place twice to powder coat some car parts. Both times were good experiences. The product came out clean with good quality paint. They painted my rear coil springs. Did a good job so I came back for them to paint my front metal bumper. It was already painted from a factory previously but they did a much better job. The paint had much more thicker coat and looked way better from the original. Talk to Sean if you ever need anything painted. They're professional and do good work. I'll be taking all my parts here in the future if I ever need anything powder coated read more

I have been remiss in not writing this review sooner... Sean and his crew were an absolute delight to work with. My furniture that was supposed to last for a lifetime was in serious need of help, after 15 years of being in the sun, rain, and elements. So I was not sure it would ever look good again. It's always a question to I refinish or buy new. I called several other places, and they were double the cost. So, I brought my large outdoor cast iron dining table four rocker chairs two chaise lounges, and umbrella stand and a side table to be refurbished I could not be more delighted with the result. Sean and the crew are amazing... I love my new "old" furniture. It looks fabulous These guys are great!! Kyra Kizirian read more

Reliable Powder Coating - Powder coated wheel - Powder Coating Near Me - San Leandro, California

I was looking to have my car wheels painted black chrome or hyper black. This is not an easy ask , as this is powder coating and not liquid auto paint. Sean and Alfredo are very knowledgeable. They put a lot of time and effort to get everything just right. And the price is better than any other wheel or rim paint job. The only downside is getting it done took longer than I would have liked. read more

I would like to acknowledge Shaun Taylor and Alfredo at reliable powder coating thank you guys for the quality work that you guys do. Things have never been better since we stopped painting our own equipment and entrusted this process to you. We always get kudos when our equipment arrives on the job, the powder coating wears so much better than regular paint and looks better longer because of its durability. Thanks again I appreciate your good work and the quick turn around times read more

We recently purchased a rusty but classic metal rocker from Zonal in Hayes Valley (http://www.yelp.com/biz/zonal-san-francisco#hrid:U26RsvB22AYsnC8EQ9WjOQ) , and wanted to have it shine like new again. My friend Sally recommended 'powder coating' it and in specific having Reliance up in San Leandro doing the job. There was a little miscommunication about when we'd need it by, but in the end the owner proved to be a stand-up guy. Most importantly, we now have a fine-looking 'pickup truck green' porch slider, and at a very agreeable price. I would invite you to come over and swing on it, but we barely know each other. read more

We've been using Reliable since 2005 for our specialty military parts and vehicle panels. Quality has always been good and they are willing to work with us as needed on special projects. They have gone thru some transitions, but we have stayed the course and always been served well. Price: Extremely competitive. In fact I have not found a company that is anywhere near as competitive as these guys. read more

Had RPC coat 4, 17" aluminum rims for me. From start to finish this shop is hands-down the best in the Bay Area. Shawn was great to work with - he was professional, responsive and offered great suggestions. Not only are the prices great, but the results and the timeliness in getting the job done are outstanding. Example - I took the rims to be mounted today and the shop (national company) really was scared to do it. They said the local shops here are producing junk and when they go to mount tires they ruin the rim...most shops are not using a primer they tell me or not curing them long enough or properly. That was NOT the case with these rims. Two of the shop guys were very impressed with the results and one even asked for the phone and address of RPC which I was happy to provide. The rims look amazing and I couldn't be happier with my experience with Shawn and RPC...A+ all the way around! read more

I am a general contractor and through my favorite metalworker, Alfredo has powder coated many railings for my remodel projects. There was never a problem on any of them, so I never spoke with Alfredo directly for any reason. But this time, I had a personal project I was working on and it involved powder coating an old metal gym locker. It was rusted and had been used for paint, grease and solvent storage. I wanted it cleaned up and coated a bright color and used to store children's toys and gardening equipment outside. Alfredo surely thought I was a bit strange, but he took on the job anyway. His guys had to sandblast the darn thing twice to clean it up enough to get a good bond. And then he carefully coated the whole thing on six sides and each interior surface with all the shelves. I picked bright orange and it looks exactly how I wanted it to. The work was thorough, the price was unbelievable, and he didn't complain a bit, even though he probably deserved to. Everything was above and beyond the call of duty! Thank you very much, Alfredo! read more

First off, the company is Reliable Powder Coating, not Reliance. These guys are pros and have been around for years. I' ve sent my work to Dave since 1999, and have never been disappointed in the quality and care that Dave and his crew put in to their production. As they are in a production mode, juggling everything from mulitiple pieces, to single items, I tip my hat to these guys for being able to juggle it all. My advice, if you are only bringing them one piece, be prepared to wait, as it's time-consuming to have re-set the powder-gun for each individual color. read more

Flawless gloss black coating on my wheels. Bringing my Dellorto throttle bodies there when I'm ready.

Reliable Powder Coating: Well this company's name says it all and they back it up with On Time, In Budget, Superior Quality Craftsmanship! We were tasked with fabricating a one of a kind, large steel, lookout tower & catwalk system as part of a reconstruction project for a very prestigious ranch owner in the Atlas Peak area. The architects specifications demanded a high performance powder coating application to withstand the year round exterior elements. Oh BTW did I mention the color was WHITE!!! Great job Team RPC, looking forward to offering you the next big job that requires your coatings expertise. Two Thumbs Up - The Olson Steel Team read more

Shawn is great. Got 4 wheels powder coated and they came out amazing. The price is great as well. Thanks Shawn!

I took my putter in to be powder coated. Shawn was very professional and his communication was great. The putter turned out fantastic. This was the first time for them to do a putter and they did a great job. I would recommend this place to everyone. read more

Overall my experience with Reliable Powder Coating went fairly smooth. I brought in some wheels to get painted after I messed up painting them myself. I am by no means an expert. I was given a quote on the spot and the final bill was over what we agreed on but I'll happily pay for a quality job. Everything was great until I noticed that the inner bores were also painted. I thought it was common knowledge that you do not want to paint it as that is the part that comes in contact with the car. These are my track wheels and I did not feel confident mounting them with the with the paint sandwiched in between. I have since removed the paint by sanding and all is good but for how much I spent I was not expecting to put in any additional labor. Also, the paint came out much darker than I was expecting. I had originally chosen a darker blue color but called to switch it the same day and I was happy to hear that the other color was not ordered yet but I wonder if the new lighter color was used. Okay, enough complaining. The wheels look great, finish is uniform. Thanks Reliable Powder Coating. read more

Great service,prices and turn around! Great crew of guys & gals, producing quality work.

Been using this place for a couple of years and I'm finally writing a review. Really good guys, the most reasonable prices I've found for powder coating in the bay area, and always super happy with the quality and their service. They have HUGE ovens and can coat huge parts, but I always bring them small, custom-fabricated stuff, and they are always happy to do it. read more

SUCH nice guys SO honest that I cannot even get the project done that I wanted due to the cost that I can buy new with out all the work from them . I couldn't believe it!! SUCH a great and honest man JUST like HIS DAD!! You cannot go wrong with this type of work if It needs doing the right way from the beginning! JUST go for it here and all will be HAPPY for ever after!! Many thanks to this crew! read more

I am a first time customer at Reliance/Reliable Powder Coating. I am an artist with an unusual request to powder coat ceramics with a non-conductive surface. Immediately Alfredo Hernandez took a chance, stepped up and gave me a free test that took an hour. Floor supervisor Jose Chavez was another stand-up guy without a doubt that made sure I was well taken care of. These guys were so accomodating to my inquirees and needs. They helped me realize an idea for a new surface treatment for my work. They proved their knowledge by projecting what might happen to my porous surface after selecting a special type of textured black that cost a lot of money. They arranged for yet another free test that yeilded great results. I gave a go ahead to complete the project and hoped for consistency in our success. We did not get that consistency and the problems they projected happened. They did not stop there and suggested I take the successful pieces and they try a different approach to get the finish I was looking for. They understood my experimental approach and worked with me so I can walk out satisfied. THEIR SEVICE WAS ABOVE AND BEYOND MY EXPECTATIONS. HONESTY and INTEGRITY THROUGH HARD WORK is what Reliable Powder Coating is about. Whatever the results of our experiments, I will always recomend this company to artists, professionals, experts and novices of any profession. Thank you guys. read more

I am an artist and I have been having my steel wire sculpture powder coated at Reliable for 10 years. What I appreciate most is the consistent high quality of the work. The whole team are great people who work together to do a great job. Reliable has weathered many challenges over the years as the economy has struggled and works to recover. They have been resilient and responded to these challenges. I think they are a great business. read more

This place is awesome and well-priced even for a small project. The guys fixing my metal gate recommended Reliance for a few brackets that I wanted to match, and when I got there and saw the scale at which this company worked I thought they would laugh when they saw the tiny box I had brought with me. The work was done beautifully in 48 hours and they did a perfect match even though I had lost the swatch code. Dave the production manager is an incredibly patient and easygoing guy, I cannot say enough nice things about him. Most of the work they do seems to be for gigantic gates or structural beams, so you do have to step over kind of a crazy maze of metal outside to get to the office, and when you get inside there is a similar lack of attention to presentation. But that's not what you're paying for, is it? Definitely worth the drive. I hope Yelp starts dropping old outdated reviews like RT's below. read more

My sister and I have been using these guys for years...and we have had numerous small - large, strangely shaped pieces that we wanted powder coated. Alfredo and crew are always helpful and willing to do whatever whack colors we choose. The price is always reasonable (very), the service with a smile and the quality of the work excellent. If you make it into the shop, stop by the office and say Hi to "Frankie" the owner's mascot. He's a hoot! read more
