Now I have " new and virgin powder coating leftovers" for 30 different colors on several brands (manufacturer) but the majority are "Cardinal". each color is from 1 Lb. to 5 Lb. depends of the color. I don´t want to make fractions on each color and I can publish a list of the inventory upon your request. Each color is for sale "as is the final weight".

They have really good customer service (my sales rep is friendly and always gives me enough information to decide on the right coating), they have smaller quantities of powder (called "TruPak"), and their powders have consistent results. I've never had a color matching problem with them. I have with other powders. They also have a lot of different effects and textures to choose from.JPetersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12829730209538362343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6576346347573188227.post-61214767157953491292017-12-01T08:47:08.652-08:002017-12-01T08:47:08.652-08:00There are lots of used and new powder coating guns...There are lots of used and new powder coating guns out there - hope you found something that works.

Until a manufacture specifically produces a color that they state is color matched to Mopar R4, I am afraid that it is going to be a "guess and check" situation. By that, I mean order several samples that you think look the closest, and then try each of them while comparing them to the actual Mopar R4 color, repeat until you are successful. I know that's probably not the answer you are wanting to hear, but if you are dead set on that color for a high-end restoration, I would say it is worth it to do some testing.

You do not need the clear though as the transparent copper will protect the chrome from oxidation. Of course, clear can be used as an additional layer of protection. This copper would be an example of that: http://www.prismaticpowders.com/colors/P-5162S/TRANSPARENT-COPPER/<br /><br />However, if both the chrome and the copper are solid colors, there is no reason to shoot them both as either one will cover the other one entirely.

Nice job on the EZ50, its a great gun for the price. I will eventually write an article about the pretreatments, but basically they help with adhesion. A lot of bulk powder coaters will use pretreatments in place of sandblasting because sand-blasting thousands of parts a week is just not cost effective. The adhesion, however, is sub-par to sandblasting. Sandblasting will give you much better adhesion. If you want to go above and beyond and have maximum durability, then both can be done. Sandblast first, and then use the pretreatment, usually iron phosphate. You can find them for sale by most of the powder re-sellers.
