If purchasing a 5/8" or 3/4" baluster, we will adjust the price when we process your order in our offices.  Give us a call if you need to know accurate powdercoating prices for the 5/8" and 3/4" sizes.**

* For EXTERIOR use we recommend a semi gloss black finish as it is the most durable for the outdoors.  Other finishes require additional care, such as a primer for anti rusting purposes.  We can add a primer to your powder coated balusters for an additional $3.00.  Please enter these in the comments section when ordering online.  This service will be added to your order.
