I sent my hood springs out for powder coating. I need a way to spread the springs apart to get a good coating. Seems to have worked well!!

Nathan,
I'd make sure that your lab oven is rated for paint/powder. With paint you usually have to have something that can evacuate a certain percentage of volatiles per hour. Not sure about powder 'gives off' during the bake, since you're essentially melting powder, but I'd still chekc that you're okay. |
