... Been thinking about this one for a few minutes, not that I have any experience with PC'ing. Fred, which type of degrees are you talking about? Those big C ones or the little F ones? 100deg F isn'

David: Most powder coats require oven setting to 450 deg, after flowout, reset to 400 and cook (cure) for 20 minutes. I powder coated my drums 10 years ago and they still look as good as new. I have
