      have either of you that do personal use a chrome that actually comes out chrome? the brand i use has luster from some angles then kinda looks like a deep silver from others, interested in what brands you two use

      I personally havent used anything chrome yet... and i'm not too sure what brand it was, I just do the coating, never ordered any of it... I think it came from some antique/muscle car restoration catalog, dont remember the name... 1990tsi would know more bout it, i think it was him or one of our friends that ordered it all...

                    Ya 4 sorry. Could you possibly do flat black center with a gloss black lip?? If that is a pain in the ass, just all flat black? And how much would you charge roughly?

                        I do some powdercoating with real small parts. My oven is a bigger toaster oven so its good for the stand up jetski parts i use it with but other than that not much fits is...
                        I bought my gun from eastwoodco.com and it works pretty good.
                        Ive done some motorcycle parts and jetski parts is about it and i usually do chrome for a base coat for a candy blue or candy purple...

                        Would it be expensive to wire a house oven? in the garage

                                  PowderCoating two colors isn't that hard... On like a cylinder head or wheels or whatever... you could use high temp. tape like i have OR you can take a damp sponge and wipe off the powder you don't want to be on there.... like on lettering on a head or something
