JCWhitney.....Not sure if that is spelled right...but they are a mail order automotive parts catalog ..I think they have a site.....well they used to sell the kit.....some kind of static charge is used to have the powder cling...then you have to bake it in an oven....do a search ....also....

Powdercoat is a heat activated colored dry powered epoxy that is thicker & more durable than paint. The static charge is not necassary to use but helps with particle retension and overspray. Baking melts the powder into a solid shinny coating.:sleep:

Where could you get the pwder coat paint and paint it yourself?

eastwood catlog sell s it you need more than the power though you need special gun that puts it on with static so it sticks to the metal
