Thread: Powder coating, lets try it.

So im going to buy a powder coating gun and a new oven I want to powder coat my supercharger. If I do ok at it I might powder coat a few parts if you would like me to.

Powder Coating is awesome. My entire subframe and suspension on my KIT is powder coated. It's coming along slowly but hopefully will be RIGHT when finished. MY point is, here is another avenue if someone is thinking about getting something done. I say do it!!! Just remember, prep work is everything...

hope its a good job cuz im too lazy to do it...

He's got a guy coming out today to wire the garage for the oven. I'm not trying to steer you away just letting you know its not as easy as they make it seem on the gearhead tv shows. For him its been a absolute headache from day one. But on a positive note while waiting for the garage rewire he bought a toaster oven to do small parts, as funny as it sounds it works and the parts I've seen are starting to come out nice, he's learning how much the prep work is most important part.

Yeah sandblaster FTW

i want my wheels powder coated. black centers and polished lip
