Hmmm......I would ask where you did that at but I would guess that's secret eh?
I use to live down there years ago and if I would have bought the swamp land then, I'd be filthy-stinkin rich now.
Ain't hindsight a b*tch??
 


of course. Prep work is a biatch though, if you want good adhesion. Probably gonna start doin little things on the side till i can get money to build my own oven. Then can possibly do larger stuff.
 


thats the same gun I have.

Eastwood powders are much better.

I've done quite a bit of side work for buddies of mine on different cars. Its a good idea to blast the parts before they get powder coated to give the powders a good bite

Its also a good idea to use an oven just for powder coating and electric is recommended.
 


there was an article in HOT ROD about baking powder coated items in an oven used for cooking..it can be poisonous...so be careful, just letting you know! you can probably find a free or cheap one on craigslist to use for baking if you want...
 
lol thanks, sounds overly cautious though. i have the windows open and fans goin when i do it and leave the door open afterwards too. i dont smell anything in the oven so i think im good.
