Default Model A Wheel Colors company

Anyone know anything about this company? I ordered some powder from them about a week ago. Paid via PayPal. Haven’t received any confirmation email and their voicemail is full. I realize things are tough but some sort of communication would be nice. Thanks in advance! Northwest Powder Company

Their 206 area code puts them in the core Puget Sound area around Seattle. Mukilteo probably does have a 206 area code. Interesting that their web site does not include their address in either the about us or the contact us tabs.

During these trying times we must be very patient with companies we do business with. The C19 virus has created a whole new business climate. One week is not an unusual wait time even in normal times. Hopefully this post has not done damage to the integrity and reputation of one of our suppliers!

I made it quite clear that I understood the difficulties they may be going through and don’t have a problem with waiting but surely they could answer an email or at least post something on their website stating such. Don’t think that’s to much to ask!! Not trying to damage anything just looking for feedback and communication

I had very Good recent success getting Tacoma Cream from the company named “Powder by the Pound”. They may be a good alternative.

This option or activity is penalizing this company for closing under the direction and insistence of the Governor. In my opinion totally unfair !

While I am not Joey, ...and while we no longer powder-paint in-house, a good rule of thumb is 1# per wheel.

Can you get your $ back via Paypal and order elsewhere? 3 weeks is enough for them to at least respond to emails and phone calls even if they can't trade IMO.
