Powder coating is pretty forgiving. Here’s the thing; get all the rust off, clean the part very well, degrease the part, out gas the part. With the gun make sure you have a good ground. A dedicated ground rod is best. Store powders in their bag and put the bag in a jar if you are storing for a while. Add silica packets to reduce moisture. Here’s a trick I have not seen on video yet; if the part has texture and you want it smooth, sad it as much as possible the coat it with a very heavy coat. Bake and let cool. Then with 220 paper sand it smooth, put it back in the oven at 100 degrees and then recoat it, and bake as required. If you are recoating a piece, drop the temp about 50 degrees and let bake about twenty minutes extra. The undercoat has to have time to bond with the new coat. If it’s cloudy or dull when you take it out you can quickly put a light coat on while it’s hot. Really, it’s trial and error, practice and experiment. Keep it up! Thanks for the vid!
Thanks
Have a look we a video doing brake caliper with dual coats
Thanks hope business is booming for ya
This is just personal powder coating
Not making it a business
Nice powder coating samples 👌, I liked the red over the chrome
Yes, really nice. Wait to see the result on the Mini Cooper!! Guess what color?
Purple is the colour to go!
You’ll find out very soon!!
🤩🤩🤩
👍🏼👍🏼
What air compressor did you use?!?!?!? Nice work!
Standard air compressor with a regulator at the gun to bring the pressure down
I just ordered mine to just waiting on it to come and I got gloss black and gloss red 1lb to try out. Lol.. wish me luck
Pretty easy to do, we have another video painting brake caliper. ua-cam.com/video/mKrI0TsS-Bo/v-deo.html
Make sure to clean your surface correctly and you can also preheat the part to get all the oil out of it if it’s the case.
Good luck
What air compressor are you using and how much? Look great!
Using a 60 gallons Devilbiss V4 dual stage.
But you can use something a lot smaller than this.
You just need 8-10 psi to apply the powder.
@MassProject Thanks for reply. I mean what compressor are you using to sand blast? My 5 cfm isn't doing it! Lol. Please help! Thanks a lot!!!
@nickyvjr4931 using my Devilbiss to sandblast. You need a lot of CFM to sandblast
is the parts really need to be hot for the 2nd coat to stick?
Doesn’t need to be at 400f but it help a lot. If It’s to cold it doesn’t stick has good. We did brake Caliper with dual coat and the result was awesome. Second coat was easy to apply because they were still hot.
Watch the following

@@MassProject is the first coat needs to be fully cured befored applying the second coat?
Yes I did fully cure it.
No more videos Frank?
Charlie, we havé aime vidéo comment up!!
@@MassProject , let’s go get her done ✅.
We need to see more now 😀
Could I get away with using this with a small compressor?
Would say yes, you only need 7-8 PSI.
@@MassProject awesome! Thanks for the reply! Keep the good content coming!
@@dirtymike9185 did you watch the Caliper job on the Mini Cooper?
