I'm about 3 hours into my first powdercoating adventure. Man, this stuff rocks. Again, Ginter is right. If you have a garage, and don't have your own setup - you might want to rethink that.
My setup from Columbia Coating, including about 8 pounds of various metallics/clears was about 200 bucks. Pam picked up some extra natural corks (because she saw it on American Chopper). They seem to work as well as the synthetic/plastic corks for plugging bolt holes. I will post pictures later... gotta get back out and monitor temps. -Rusty (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) |

Yup. A guy sent me pics of an old Weber BBQ grill with sides he built and painted it all black. Powdered his parts and placed them in the grill in the sun for the afternoon. He said it had been years since he coated them and they were still mint.
