Powder coating info


Drax240z

Recommended Posts

Just wondering if a few things are available in powder coating. First, can you get glossy powdercoating? And second, does anyone know of a "clearcoat" powercoating that I could get done on bare metal?

 

Thanks,

This is for a set of wheels. And I don't plan on spending an arm and a leg on them, because they aren't going to be the final wheels on the car...

 

Thanks for your input, but is anyone able to answer my question?

Good powdercoating DOES protect. It's so tough that the only way it comes off is with serious abrasion or by a hard impact striking the item. I've got a powdercoasting shop near me and am intending to get a bunch of stuff done at once for the Z. Did some stuff for the Mustang and it was sealed up tight - much better than paint.

 

Eastwood also sells a powdercoating kit. It stinks if you bake it in the oven though but since I need to replace my oven anyway and rewire the garage it may end up a fixture out there :-) The woman will be happy with a new oven I'm sure! This 70's crap sux...

Try http://www.eastwoodco.com/cgi-bin/sgdynamo.exe?HTNAME=/hotcoat/hotcoat_new.htm&UID=2000090320231974&FNM=20

 

The kit is 149.00, Cost me $195.88 for the kit (which comes with 8oz Black), plus 2LBs Hotcoat Poder F*rd Light Blue (which is the best match to my color they have, and S&H. Check out the heat Lamp they have and the blast box that is big enough to get a 16" rim in and it sits on top of a bench. Things that make you say huuummmmmm!
