i started out with a hotcoat original gun, and it did the job.. now i ahve the hotcoat pro setup, which is nice.. but im getting ready to goto the next step (within the next 2 weeks) to a bigger more versitile wagner unit.. and thatll come from columbia coatings..

powdercoating is easy.. it just takes time.. but at the same time, its fairly easy to have such a great start and once you bake it off you have a ****ty result.. best thing i can suggest is to practice.. buy the stuff and practice
