[K_Fulk]

This brake hub and rear caliper came out pretty good, But this aluminum stuff is getting on my nerves need to get some of columbia aluminum cleaner to try. Maybe that will help.

Look on there you need a pc gun a aircompressor and a oven. I only have $150 in my stuff so far.

[crap-banshee32]

when u buy that kit, do u get the powder coat with it?

[crap-banshee32]

oh yeah and, can u use just a regular kitchen oven for it?

[K_Fulk]

I bought my gun used. I bought a sample kit from columbia for 20 some dollars that had 6 colors. I went to a salvation army thrift store and bought a regulr oven for $20.

[crap-banshee32]

haha thats a good idea, can it be any ol' oven, does it matter?

and do u know of anyone else that has a used pc gun for sale?

[K_Fulk]

New guns are only $60-150 depending on where you look (untill you get into the pro guns). I got an electric oven, i dont really know if you could use gas or not?

[400extracc]

no, can't use gas!!!!! just got my eastwood pc kit today. can't use it yet, oven not hooked up. can't wait to pc!!!!!:macho

[K_Fulk]

Get some pics up when you do

[crap-banshee32]

yeah, ok, i think im actually gunna try this!!! i think it will be fun!!

[Max400]

What kind of ovens do you guys use? do you guys have pics or something? I'd to put one in my shop. Thanks

here is my question....when you coat the calipers, do you take the piston out? I know there are seals in there that will melt in a heartbeat. Is there a rebuild kit for that, or can the origional seals be reused?

[TeamC&GRacer]

you can use a regular kitchen over, but id recommend an old one not used for cooking. I dont think anyone would wanna eat some blue powdercoated steak ... lol :devil

Yeah there out. I'm reusing the seals, and buying new pistons mine were all junk. The pistons you can get from honda.
