I started powder coating parts for my cars restoration and the results have been amazing. My car looks 10x better because everything is powder coated.

Anyways, if anyone else here is interested in powder coating or already is into powder coating, you might want to check the site out. http://www.powdercoatguide.com/

I just finished an article on How to build your own powder coating oven.

Also, feel free to ask me any powder coating questions, I would be happy to answer them.

After powder coating so many things, it starts to get harder to "wow" yourself. However, I am very happy with how my power steering pump turned out. I am using all freshly zinc plated OEM hardware. Really makes it nice putting everything together with "like new" stuff.

I used to do alot of PC years ago. I used a company in Nashville. Since I was stationed at Ft Campbell, these guys were easy to deal with. But they are still great and offer alot of products, classes, telephonic help, etc.
