Seeing that this is the "new" thing to do, & I've retired from the painting business, I think that this will be my next project, how many in here would be interested in having something powder coated at a reasonable price ? I need to find a building that can accomedate an oven thats 11' x 8 x 9 + a spray booth & a 4'x4'x4' oven, when I do I'll be taking orders. :feedback

Not I. I have a buddy do all of mine. we have a swap trading thing goin on, so I get mine done for "free". It's a good idea tho, I hope you get a customer base built up.

I think it would be a great addition to the services offered by vendors on this board.

I thought you were retired?

I thought you were retired?

I am, its going to be a hobby thing, if it takes off I'll give it to my daughters, it just seems like theres a huge market out there for powder coating and there isn't anyone around here doing it, besides all play & no work is the "devils" workshop.........

I maybe interested in having you do some small parts for me on a weekly basis.

I'm fairly new to this stuff and was wondering what this powder coating is or what it does or what its for? Someone in a previous thread spoke of offering a port & polish job for intake manifolds, is this similar?

No 2 totally different things, powder coating in short is spraying a plastic like material on metal then putting it into an oven to bake, when its done it looks like paint only 1000 times more durable.My calipers & rotors are powder coated chrome, they look nasty . Port & polish is grinding down the sharp edges on the intake to allow more air in and polishing them smooth.
