question for pappy or whoever else knows the answer

im buying a powdercoating kit for about 70 bucks with every thing to get started.

my buddies want to do their a-arms and swing arms with it and i wanted to know how long does powder usauly last? if i got 16 ounces of black powder how long will it last me and also do you think a swing arm and a-arms are small enought to do with a 70 dallor kit?

you get what you pay for.....you can PC stock arms b/c of ball joint are non removable

i think he meant can't, mainly for the reason is the temps you have to take the parts to. I bought one of those little powder coating kits and did some on my 85 r trike when I had it.... It did great and lasted everywhere except for the pegs which i figured it wouldn't last to long anyways.... Make sure you have an adequate oven to bake the parts in...Chris

A pound (16 oz.) of powder generally goes for 30-50 sq. ft.
