I'm thinking about getting a powder coating gun to work on my own little car paint projects. Reason being is people charge too much to powder coat brake calipers and for that, i might as well buy my own gun and work on my stuff and maybe even make a little cash on the side working on stuff for my friends.
Anyway, I know they sell ovens specifically for powder coating, but would it be okay to use my kitchen oven to cure the parts? Sounds like it would work but I don't want my family to die from powder paint poisoning or something. Thoughts? -------------------- ![]() |
