So back in November, I took up powdercoating. I started with some metal things I had laying around and then started to Do a few things on my car. I really like the finish I get now....It took a lil while to ge the hang of it but I'm starting to get pretty good, haha. My friends are bringin me some of there car parts to start coating. I have spent a good 1800-2000 on supplies to have everything I need, but It's definetly a fun hobby. Imma Post up some pics of the things I started powdercoating On my car. Anyone else on here try powdercoating?

aepimp04,
Are you using supplies from a specialized vendor or? Do you set up a booth to do the powder spraying or are you doing an immersion method? Just curious what has worked for you.
 
I buy my powder from powderbythepound.com Other than that I bought my self a blast cabinet, made a homeade powder booth....(old refrgerator), and I bought my Powder gun from Eastwoodco
 
That is a good hobby to have. I hope you enjoy it because your friends will start to bring you everything the coat. Good luck.
 
look pretty good man, you ever going to do some work for some cash? If so let me know, I got some things I wanted to powder coat and it looks like I'm not to far away :thumb:
