  • There is WAY TO MUCH powder in that gun. That is the reason in is clumping out. I have that same system. There is a fill line on the powder container. You should only have about 2" of powder in it. My gun filled correctly produces a fine cloud of powder. You will go through a LOT less powder.

  • @jeffbrent Thats good advice. Will do.

  • just a regular kitchen oven that I wired up in my garage.

  • Hey I want to start powder coating and wanted to know where you got your equipment and powder at? LMK ASAP please. Thanks!

  • I bought my powder coat gun, and powder at Harbor Freight Tools. The gun was on sale for 50 bucks when I bought it.

  • Can you reuse the powder that falls off of the part?

  • I dont re-use it, but I guess you could if you wanted to. I would be afraid of it being contaminated with other junk, but if you dont care, I dont see why you couldnt.

  • @calicobychoice yeah made a slide show with pictures of every step. as soon as the videos done ill let you know when i post it.

  • @quitblazing Did you make a video of that oven you made? Or how about what materials you used to make it.

  • In the powder coating process, i think you need to heat the material first.

  • All you have to do is turn down the pressure use less paint and tune until u get a light cloud. Use a disposable in line or water separator or just a regular one. Try hanging it from a thick wire for better ground. I used thick welding wire and it sucks it to it like a magnet. I just made a custom 6 1/2 foot powder coating oven from materials at my job. The cleaner environment the better

  • wer did u cure it? baked it??

  • Try sifting your powder with a fine strainer, like a flour strainer. it will take out those minor bumps in the finish! Best of luck!

  • hey you could paint

    at b&r  or maybe stick to welding!
