Re: Is powder coating and annodizing worthwhile?

We've been lucky enough to have a powdercoat sponsor who normally turns around our parts in under 8 hours and an anodize shop that usually is able to do our parts fairly quickly as well.

It definitely makes a huge difference in terms of making your robot look more professional.
How would we go about getting sponsors who will do these for us? I mean, they must expect something in return if they are willing to sponsor a team.
