One tip, if you're just doing small parts like this you can buy one of those pop up tanning tents off Ebay or Amazon for like $40 and powder in that. It helps contain the powder mess.
Nice job dude. So satisfying seeing parts come back to life instead of buying new all the time. Well that's just me but I have OCD so I take even more pleasure I'm the process of seeing old parts given a second lease of life👍🏼👍🏼I like the candy red too. Thanks for sharing your skill with all man.
Nice color! I spray parts on a table with a couple of box fans on low and furnace filters in front of the fan. The fan draws the loose powder into the filter.
Of to check ur channel to see if you actually cerakoted the body of the shock. I have a gsxr SRAD shock that I want to rebuild and want to do the same with the spring but in yellow and I want the body done in bronze cerakote👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Adam had a bit of bother with gloss laquer top coat cracking seems to be i under baked the top coat, learn from my mistakes seems to be the way.
Awesome video! I have the same gun and struggled trying to shoot my 2nd coat cold. I'm going to try to shoot the 2nd coat at 150 like you did. Thanks for the tips! Rashad
Hey was wondering if you still powder coat was wanting to do some springs as well for a silverado but i don’t know how to take it off and i don’t wanna risk if with the spring compressor
Hi there do you part bake the first coat as in 2/3 of the fully baked time then fully bake the top coat. Ive heard this is the way to do it if putting multiple coats on a piece.
Hey man - Awesome video! I just paid to get some parts coated, but thing im going to setup my own rig soon to save on costs in the long run. Question though - how do you deal with the hanger marks - would think you cant get good coverage on a single coat as the hanger blocks contact for the powder. Did you do two coats of each color, or just deal with the naked spots left by the hangers?
By the way, SUB AND LIKED! Looking forward to more videos (your time-lapse overview video is what got me to your channel and man oh man what a great job!
Once part reaches curing temperature is when the timer starts. If you don’t have a heat gun you can judge this by when you see the powder start to flow but a heat gun is more accurate.
Adam Paganelli Thank you, I have a heat gun but started the clock when inserting part in the oven. Thanks again for all the tips in your video and your reply!
I would really like to see the spring installed on the strut, how to do it safely and not damage the spring etc. Thanks and a very encouraging vid.

Thanks for the tip man! Might be hard to film in one of those though would be the only issue
@@adampaganelli4891 Yeah just a tip for people not filming.
Beautiful results. Also thanks to the video I found another purpose for a toaster oven apart from using it to heat up my pizza rolls.
Same here. I actually just set one outside my tool shed waiting to throw away. Guess it's going back in the shed. 🤷🏼♂️
Good video dude!

What psi and grit are you using in your blast cabinet, I got a box from harbor frieght with 70 grit oxide and it doesn't strip anything.

Yes the 150 degrees seems to be the ticket
if you have the dual voltage make sure to go from the second setting...aka high voltage, to the lower voltage, it helps a ton
Looks great but heating up the springs that hot doesn't compromise their rigidity?
Hi there, is there any procedure on how to prevent marks from the hanging steel wire?
I would like to ask if powdercoating a coil spring of the mtb it will not change the spring rate?
Hey was wondering if you still powder coat was wanting to do some springs as well for a silverado but i don’t know how to take it off and i don’t wanna risk if with the spring compressor
is that a box frame behind you?
I have a question does it have a bad smell when you put it in the oven?
Looks amazing! Is the paint not too hard for spring? Is it not going to crack and chip?
Most coil springs are powder coated to begin with.
Did the red coat not need electricity? I don't see you connected it back on 8:33
Hi there do you part bake the first coat as in 2/3 of the fully baked time then fully bake the top coat. Ive heard this is the way to do it if putting multiple coats on a piece.
I did a full bake on each coat which was what the powder company recommended.
How much weight of powder was used? 1lb maybe?
What color is this and where do I get??
Hey what powder coat colors did u use ??

Thank you! Yes I just deal with them on something like a spring. If you position them correctly your spring seats will cover them
can you share the RAL code of the red ?
How do you get the powder under the hooks?
What happened to Adam? He hasn’t posted anything in like a year
Won't the powder coat crack and fall off the spring 🤔🤔
Niiiice. Gonna have to get me some of that super chrome. Prismatic, right?
So the curing time starts when the part has the right temperature and not when you put it in the oven? I Just started and my Chrome is dull.

You have business site? I want some qoutes. Thanks.
Also, thanks for the cool video's
Heat *can* have an effect on the properties of a spring.
This dude has zero emotion or expression😂
