Hey Guys,
I have been a powder coater for a while now.  Yep, Just Gloss Black  and 
Wheel Horse Red. Small parts that will fit although I have done an entire  TR7 
front suspension sub frame 1/2 at a time leaving the door of the oven  open.  
There is nothing like the "Instant Gratification" that comes with  the process. 
 
I can do an entire suspension job on one side in a  weekend.  Use my Wife's 
oven? Are you kidding me? 
I have found that the spraying process also makes a mess.  I have a  blocked 
off, ventilated paint room in the basement and the floor is black from  the 
excess powder and over spray. It is fairly disgusting but the parts on  the 
cars 
are perfect.
