An article in the Hays Daily News shines a great light on a local powder coater.
From the article: Leon Pfannenstiel read the raised lettering on the metal pedestal of a stoplight pole awaiting painting at his shop, Leon’s Welding & Fabrication, on the US-40 highway bypass. “Eagle Signal Co., Davenport, Iowa,” Pfannenstiel read out loud. The pole is one of seven in his shop, all of them taken down on Main Street from the corners of 11th and 12th streets in Hays. The City of Hays hired Leon’s Welding to refurbish the lights, said Public Works director Jesse Rohr. “We just took them down for general maintenance,” Rohr said. “They are being sandblasted and powder-coated black. They’ve been yellow forever.”
