Thread: back from powdercoat

what type of paint did you use on the casing.

Last year i had attempted to match the powdercoat color 2 times. This year i took the part down to the parts store and asked if they could guarantee a match because the previous two attempts cost $17 a piece(they can mix any color you want and put it in a spray can for you). The guy behind the counter said to go down to the place i had it powdercoated and get the number for that color because oftem times they have it in their database. They had the number in their database and the match is 99% percent on. The only thing i don't like about the paint is they recommeded i don't clear it because it doesn't have a hardener in it and could react with the clear. If i had thought ahead they could have put a hardener in the spray can but i would have like 24 hrs to use the can before it was no good. Oh well gives me a project next year if ultimately it doesn't work out to my liking(durability and cleaning wise).
