Two good places are Caswell and Eastwood.

There's no dumb questions... only dumb people

Really though, there's also a powdercoating shells How-To somewhere in the library. Hey, we all have to learn somewhere!

craftsman was selling a gun for a while, don't know if they still do. it was just manufactured by another company, made in black plastic instead of blue, and had the craftsman logo put on it. any tech support was even directed over to that company.

i've also used columbia coatings for powder.

Harbor Freight makes a decent one also. I used mine for the first time the other day.
On Sale for $59.99 and even cheaper if you find a 20% off coupon...

Thought I had posted this same response, but.....
Just get your powders from Caswell or Eastwood. They have better powders.
