Powder coating

Post by gt11rocco »

So after having loads of parts over the years sand blasted and painted/powdered and spending a small morgage as well I've set out to start it my self.
So I found my self the powder coating gear fairly cheep and local to me so was perfect after doing a few test bits from old boilers ect as everything now I'm going big haha, I'm in the process of building a kerosene oven for baking the parts and as I'm building it my self I'm not restricted on size I do have an old oven that I can use for small things and I know people adapt them to take like a wheel but I'd like I've to fit like a set of wheels or fuel tanks ect in so what do people think is the best size to go for and has any 1 done the same their is a few on flebay but start around 1200 lol when I could build the same size for a few £££

Wow, that's dedication.
Plenty of people needing the service, suppose getting the temp and conditions right is half the battle though.
