Powder coating...

[penhead]

Question about powder coating...perhaps 'dumb' question...but i have a powder coating machine that i purchased a couple of years ago and have never taken out of the box yet...
but am considering pc'ing some brass tubes...but wondering if ( i only see three colors available) the powder's can be mixed together to make different colors..??..or am i just shopping in the wrong place and there is (someplace???) to purchase other colors..??

There are numerous suppliers of powder coat powder. Here is one: http://www.caswellplating.com/powder/powder_colors.html

Yes, powder paint colors can be mixed. In fact, some sellers publish recipies for replicating particular auto body colors.

In addition to Caswell, you can also find a variety of colors at www.eastwood.com and www.columbiacoatings.com.

You can get powder at harbor freight as well.

DON'T!!!

I made that mistake when I got my system a while back. Their powder is garbage.

I buy almost exclusively from Eastwood now. I have never had an issue with theirs.
