Great thread Carl.Nothing to contribute to it,but would like to try it.
Can only presume paint and set up will be 3 or 4 x's the price for set up and powders, here in Oz.
You have inspired me to look into.
Thanks.

I got a setup from Eastwood automotive sevral years ago for motorcycle parts, very good quality and good customer support after the sale. They have hundreds of colors, some even mirror anodized aluminum, very cool. I also bought the book they have on powder coating they have where they use the same equiptment they sell, you can do with out it but there are so many helpful hints and tricks to make your first time turn out like you kinda know what you are doing.

As far a cooking, i use an old kitchen oven, a good tip on coating is to suspend your pieces from the oven rack and spray, you have a good ground for sevral pieces, move you work from the spray booth directly to the oven and place the rack in the top slot and you never have to handle them reducing a chance for knocking off powder.

Thanks for the heads up on the book. I'm pretty sure I'll be looking it up and making the purchase. I want to do more of this but need to refine my technique.
