Powder Coating at home?

[lcruz64]

Sears Exclusive
Powder-coating can be applied to iron, steel, aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, and also chrome-plated surfaces. The Craftsman Powder Coat system will allow you to obtain professional results at home at a fraction of the cost. Superior to aerosol and other liquid coatings in flexibility, corrosion, and chemical resistance. Over spray is simply swept up and disposed of in household refuse. The system includes the accessories, application gun, and detailed instructions. Powder-coating, like other high-quality coatings, can only be applied over a bare metal surface. Removing corrosion and old coatings can be easily accomplished with abrasive paper, wire brush, liquid paint stripper, or abrasive blasting. Once removed simply wipe with acetone or paint thinner, allow to dry, and coat. The only components you will need are an object to coat and an extra toaster oven or non food prep conventional oven.

Benefits of powder-coating:

Ease of application
Environmentally friendly
Fast and easy to clean up
No fumes or overspray
No harmful solvents or toxins
Very quick 10-30 minute cure time
No CFCs
EPA approved process
Required safety equipment [Items NOT included]: rubber gloves, goggles and dust mask, non-food preparation oven, electric or gas.

Yeah, your going to need an oven to cure the powder coating and you definitely would not want to use the oven for preparing food afterward. That a pretty cool little setup. You'll just need to get an oven big enough for whatever you will be powder coating with a max temp high enough to cure the powder.

I used to powder coat for a living, the process is really easy, but pretty messy. Buy a mask, your going to need it.

Good luck. Let us know how everything turns out.

i was actually thinking about picking up a working oven from the street, putting it in the backyard and work with that.

ovbiously you will need something bigger for like a rim, but having somone weld a metal box for you, and you just put some stove tops in there, wiring them with temp resistant wires and you should be set, or even making the box yourself

Still, it looks like it is a pretty good system. I know if I had one I'd be powder coating everything I could get my hands on.

I never said that. I used to work for a powder coating company called MNdustries. We did not do car parts at the time, mostly much larger things like the Olympic commemorative light posts seen throughout downtown Atlanta and etc. However, they have tapped the automotive market since I left.

I was just passing on some 411 about the powder caoting process in general.
