Powercoating ???

[mvftw]

I'm planning on getting the Eastwood powercoating system. Can someone give me(us) tips (pros & cons) on powercoating from the house (I have an oven). The finish looks great when done right. My first projects are the fan & black L82 valve covers. I guess I need Hi-Temp power...

Wow, you're gettin in over my head on that. With one exception... I believe that it is called PowderCoating. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Perhaps they are two different prrocesses. On the powdercoating.... GS wheels are powdercoated in black and a few months back I detailed a GS and found it impossible to get anything to bond with them. It really is amazing stuff. How much did your system cost and where did you get it from?

It is PowderCoating, 3 games of racketball last night, the fingers aren't working well...I didn't buy it yet but this is what I'm looking at... http://www.eastwoodco.com/aspfiles/...DIV=0101&PRED=I&UREQA=N&UREQB=7&&LinkKeyWord= they always have a booth a big shows, this Sunday is a big show at Englishtown, NJ (Raceway park), I'll be there, if the price is right, I'll buy it there.

I think I'd be powdercoating our silverware, the patio furniture, and anything else I could find! I'd like to know how this process compares to other systems. It does look schweet though.

... powdercoating our silverware

I was looking at Eastwood's powdercoating systems just last week! I especially liked the walk-in oven (expandable too!), but I was talking to a shop owner here and realized that southern California would probably not be the easiest place to set up a small business like that.

Eastwood's got some nice stuff though, eh?

I've been going to the Eastwood tent for years at shows, but this time I'm looking to buy! Like I said before, my first project will be the fan & black valve covers. I would think that powdercoating would look great. Has anyone done that yet?
