Fan & Shroud restoration (again !)

This topic resurfaces frequently ... but haven't seen a recent thread..
My fan and shroud are our stripped and cleaned.


I am looking for person/company to refinish them by powder coat or cerakote, the central brass boss which is riveted in and needs replating, makes me a bit nervous to tackle it.


Any current suggestions please ?


Or if someone has a good (idiots) guide to doing this, maybe I can tackle it

I had to replace my alternator when the bearings were really grumbling. Of course "while I was in there" I had my housing and fan cerakoted at a local place. It came out great.

GH85, now’s that ceremony holding up? Have you had it for very many miles? I love the look and idea, just want to see how long it lasts, etc. Mine is also in need of a restoration, and I have been thinking about Cerakot.

Reno Rennsport just did mine. I’m very pleased with it. If you call, ask for Jess.

Those look great! I've got to replace my shroud, and will go for a new aluminum one, as soon as I see one on sale.

Were they able to Cerakote the fan with the pulley riveted to it, or does the pulley need to be removed?

For mine, they removed the pulley, had it plated, and re-installed it.
