The Founder

Rick Gibbons

A little bit about myself. I have had many jobs and many job titles. I wasn’t the best kid in school and I made the decision in my junior year to drop out and go to work full time. From there I worked my butt off as many in my generation have. I have had my fair share of failed business endeavors with friends but i couldn’t let that stop me. I spent some time as a car salesman where i met some very good people and mentors. From that i had an opportunity to become a motorcycle rider and mechanic. A passion I didn’t know I had. Later on down the road the mechanics as a job became mondain and the passion started to fade. I still had that business desire in my head to one day have my own company. So out of necessity i needed some motorcycle parts powder coated and nobody would do them. And the rest of the story is currently being written. The Powder Guy was born! Starting off with a conventional in home oven and basic equipment, I now have a 6ft tall, 3ft deep and 4ft wide oven and more professional equipment. I love the look on customers faces when they get their custom pieces back! I love doing it and cant wait to see what the future holds! Thanks for stopping by and feel free to contact me anytime!
