Thanks for the link, I just went to their website and they show a propane
heater (they say its infrared?) to heat the parts. I didn't think of using
one of those... I have a single burner job (they show a 2, they also have a
3 I think, but those are fairly cheap) What happens if I powder coat my
frame, and then later get damage or have to cut something and reweld, etc.
Can I repair the powder by spraying powder over the cured powder then
recuring? How much powder do you think for a frame and all the
suspension/rearend? I guess if I run out, I can stop in the middle and go
get some more? :)
