Anybody do powder coating at their home?

Not sure where to put this.

I've been thinking of getting a powder coating set up and found a used one that I may look at. It comes with everything needed to get started. The over is big enough to fit a 17-18inch wheel. There's been a high demand for it and am wondering if it's worth getting into.

 

Man on my car I would have poweder coated everything. But not much on my truck except for the rims. I think for the right price it would be a great investment for you to have at home if you have the space.

 

hell yeah its worth it ive been quoted at $130-$150 per wheel to powder coat.

 

Anymore comments?

I'm seriously considering to get these.

 

I have been wanting to get the harbor freight set up, cheap as hell. Make sure what ever you powder coat you have to cure in the oven. That is the only thing stopping me.(wife)

 

I don't know anything about name brands. :\

This is the setup per description...

 

Its not reccomended to cure PC in your home use oven. Best bet is to find a used oven in the classifieds

 

seems ok if you have 220 plugs. Any pictures?

 

I think he's offereing an oven specifically for pc.

I hope...lol

 

Not yet. Should be getting some tomorrow and I'll post them up.

 

My dad did it years ago, he picked up an old oven and put it in his shop. It worked pretty well for smaller parts, you would need a big oven for wheels.

 

Pics as promised. Kind of meh. :\ What do you guys think?

looks like harbor freight stuff plus an oven.

powder coat kit. 59.99 sandblast cabinet. 119.99 Here is the powder coat search page. You can find a oven cheap i am sure.

 

New prices are't too bad. I'm going to do some more research on getting started and go that route.

Thanks for the links.
