diy powder coating

[cropwell]

I've had stuff powder coated at G Shaw's in Cropwell Bishop (0115 9892266). They do a run of 'Appliance white' most days and any other colour once or twice a week. At least they did 5 years ago. I found them cheap and helpful.

I do this in school, we use powdered polythene. 125 degrees and I sometimes sprinkle it on from a small plastic cup or jar. On steel I heat with a blowtorch until the metal goes straw colour then sprinkle the powder. Blowing the powder into a cloud from the bottom of a comtainer also works better but more kit to mess with with excited kids around. If you want some powder let me know.
