Bzzt !  Nope, not right at all.  Cured powder coat looks like paint, not
powder.  It's only powder before it's cured (just like paint is only liquid
until it's cured).  And it should continue looking like paint right down to
the bare metal.

Not sure gyped is the right word, but it sure sounds like somebody goofed.
On the sills, not the pans.  I'd guess they underestimated how long it would
take to get those big sill sections hot all the way through.
