Started To Powder Coat
well for my birthday last January i told my parents and my fiance i wanted a powder coat kit. so for my birthday i got the Eastwood dual stage powder coat gun. it came with a bunch of accessories and other goodies. i couldn't wait to get started. next step was an oven, luckily for me my fiances mom and dad were re doing their kitchen so i was able to get a house oven for free lol. so in my dads garage he has a 35x40 garage with a 12ft ceiling. he has a 4 post lift so i use that as the paint booth and i use plastic to go around the whole thing then i use our shop vac and run the hose inside the booth to help pick up some loose powder floating around and i have little carts and stands and stuff that the old man and i built. so ive been going at it now since about February or so. did some vape boxes, valve covers, wheels, and even a fender and cover for a Harley. heres some of the work ive done so far. enjoy

Thanks man next is to do my calipers and the valve cover but idk yet for valve cover.
I would love to get them powder coated but I would need a quote first and i actually have a powder coating/hydro dipping place like 2 mins away from the house

White or black would look good for the valve cover. Hydro dipping is awesome but there again way over priced for what it is
