Wrench (1k)  Project 92 SC - Powdercoating
  
While I haven't taken any parts to a powdercoater in the past, I do know that it isn't the cheapest service to have done.  Since I'm the type of person who likes to do things myself, why should powdercoating be any different?

Anyone can powdercoat.  You do need a few things: an air compressor, a sandblaster to prepare your parts, a powder gun kit to spray the powder, and a spare oven to cure the freshly-coated parts.  You will need a lot of patience too, since it's usually not a quick process.  But, if done corrrectly, the results are amazing.  If you're interested in getting started with powdercoating, check out the links at the bottom of this page.
