Re: Got my Eastwood Poweder Coat Kit today...

I use a home oven that I bought for 100 bucks works great. Get your self some heavy wire to make a few hooks. I have seen a few guys build a home srpay booth with 20 twenty inch box fans a couple of 2 buck screens for your home heating system and a bow fridge box. I was shocked at how good it really worked. Some PVC and sheeting will get the job done and some racks to hang parts.

I can tell you metal prep is the very important for a great gloss finish. CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN parts, pre heat to cook off anything that wants to pop to the surface. Let it cool while the oven stays hot get the metal down to a temp where the powder does not melt , but it will stick like a mother for you.

I have done tons of stuff on my truck, the intake, valve covers, rear diff covers, upper and lower a arms, ..if you can fit it into the oven it gets PC'D .. Super tough finish that will last much longer than paint.
