i have to admit i feel that pappy is the best powdercoating machine you can get.

on the other hand ive used a hot coat gun in my buddys garage with no flaws.

Mark, the hobby guns all do an ok job for small parts and single colors. They lack the control and adjustability to do a multi layer job on a larger scale.


I have an INSA commercial unit for sale, but its not a hobby set up.

im affraid that your unit would be a little more than im looking to spend. And kyle-- i agree pappy does a great job and his prices are right- but shipping eats me up. im praticly in st. louis mo.


pappy-- I usally have my parts sprayed in a single semi-gloss color. so do you think that a hobbi gun would benifit me ok?? if so is there a brand or anything special i should look at before purchasing??

thanks guys
