I was looking at Harbor freights sprayer to do small jobs but I need to know where you can get paint materials that match porsche colors?

do a search for the powders using your area as part of the search criteria. I know PDX (Portland, OR) as a couple professional (and many amatuer) places...they may sell.

I bought my supplies from Columbia Coatings, and will buy from them again.

Regardless of who you buy for, when you select powders, explain what you're going to use it for. They can give you advice about the necessity of a clear powdercoat on top.

Hey Rusty,

Have you ever cured the Powdercoating the IR method?

I was checking out Columbia Coatings website and under the customer parts section, one person powdercoated his AR-15, I wonder if it affected the accuracy of the rifle (I've got blueprints to build an AR-15, just need to decide if I want to stick with the .223 Remington or another caliber )

Just wondering can stainless be powder coated or does is have to be electroplated?

I've never done IR curing... I like the idea, though.
