My son in Georgia is Powder Coating many parts on his off brand car. He bought a Chicago Pneumatic Gun kit from Columbia Coatings for about $75.00 with powder extra. Their address is www.columbiacoatings.com. He first tried infrared lights and infrared Propane. It failed real bad. He then made a oven so to speak out of rock wool insulation and a metal frame that sits in front of the propane heater. This works great and will cure the powder in the times listed in the manuals. I have some pictures he sent me of before and after. If anyone wants to see them, email me and I will send them to you.
I am considering buying the same gun and making a oven like he did for my projects and Tam's project.
