Thanks guys
I started doing powder coating cause I like to do most of my builds myself, no pacing around waiting for parts to get finished(even though there is a powder coating company next door to the shop, but the dude is a faggot)
So now i get to reap all the benefits and downfalls, if it looks great its all on me, if i fucked it up its all on me.
I have limited colors, and skill. Basically enough to keep something from rusting and look decent. My powder coat gun isnt the best so i pretty much wasted all of my wrinkle finish, so i just have dull black, red, and yellow. I can order new colors but they take about 6-8 days to come in. As long as whatever you have isnt very intricate i'll do them for you for cheap, i'll blast them, prep them and coat them and only charge a nominal fee, mostly just enough to cover the powder and my food ate while doing a job.

What about wheels? I want to powder coat my Goat wheels silver. I know quite a few people that are looking for powder coatig, so if you'd like, I'll let people know.

My oven unfortunately isnt very large, so i think the cap for the size would around a 16" rim. But i'm working on making a new one, i'll keep you posted.
Small stuff, like intakes, valve covers, accessorie brackets etc. Are all about what i can do at this point

I have 18"s, so that will have to be on hold. I might be asking you to do my Evo calipers soon if it's possible.

I may just hunker down this weekend and buy a sheet metal brake so I can start on a larger oven. But I'll still need heating elements, insulation, glass, timer, and temperature circuits. So might be a few weeks since im trying to get the car finished. I'll toss some of these 16" rims i have in and see if i cant fit them in the oven, i'll get back to you...

Can you use a regular household oven? I've heard of people using them but I don't know if they get hot enough (I don't know how hot the oven has to get to).

Thats what i'm using now, some powders require ALOT of heat, for stuff like jet hot, the oven needs to get into the 1000* range. Most powders cure in the 350-450 range
