  • My powder coating.

    I want to introduce myself, I write for a a DIY powder coating site. I have been powder coating for several years now and I just made the site to make it easier for other new powder coaters to get started.

    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.

    Heres some pics:

                  Thanks, I have been doing it for a couple of years now but I am very glad I decided to get into it.

                  Thanks, the alternator is still my favorite piece I have done so far. All of the parts posted are fresh out of the oven, no post-work was done to them.

                  Oops, where should I move this to?

                  and thanks, I am guessing by your comment that you may do some powder coating as well?

                    To compliment the powder coating, I just had every fastener on the car re-plated with zinc.

                        Here are some pics of the car before I started the restoration:








                        This was a couple of months ago. The unibody is now completely stripped and I am getting ready to paint the whole thing:
