Anyone have any experiance with Doing their on Powder Coating? I've been looking into eastwoods Elite HotCoat Powder Coating Kit. I plan on doing a simple gloss black coating on a few parts mainly bars/risers and exhaust heat shields. Thanks.

 

I once had the idea of doing a few things too. Then the thought came "when I go to cook the parts...do I use my oven in the house?" I decided against it, since I really didn't know what kind of harmful fumes the coating puts off. Besides, I've inhaled enough bad stuff throughout my life. Anyhoo, if I had an oven of my own, outside in my shop, I would do it for sure.

 

I use the eastwood system and it works great.Ive done quite a bit of powdercoating with it.Dont use a gas oven or the oven in youre house as the fumes are rough.You can use a regular oven thats electric though.Ive since built my own oven out of a commecial restraunt freezer,that measures 4'x5'x3'.Its big enough to do anything motorcycle related.All the work with powdercoating is in the prep.There are also some good forumd out there for powdercoating.check caswellplating i belive they got a forum link there.
