It's not the sticking to the part that's so much of the problem as it is the
400 degrees that the material has to survive in order to cure the powder.
I don't know if many of the plastic parts from the 60's and 70's that are on
our Triumphs could take 400 degrees. I probably won't try it but if anyone
has I'd be interested in knowing the results....cause I've got some dust
covers (plastic) that I wish I could powder coat. I'll probably just paint
them.
