Just acquired a new addition to the hanger for possible powder coating of small parts. Anybody have suggestions for a newbie powdercoater?

so which starter kits are people using?
which brands of powder? I know they vary a bunch in chemical resistance...(just like different paints/brands...)
maybe post some links in this thread to what works well, and what to stay away from.....
thanks
Mike,
As with any coating, the prep is what is important. Removal of dirt and oil, then a conversion coating followed with a sealer is pretty standard.

explain more please..... I get the dirt and oil removal part....
but what's the other 2 steps you mention?
I'm happy with our powder coater here, Advanced coatings in Big lake....
just might be nice to have capability here if i forget to send something....
short of the 1 1/2 hour round trip to drop off, and again, to pickup finished parts.......
