hi guys, i purchased a low cost powder machine and today was my first time powder coating with it. i had a couple problems, nothing major, but i have some questions and hope you guys can help.

1 the powder was really erratic, sometimes none or hardly any would come out, other times when you pulled the trigger it would pour out the end, what am i doing wrong?

2 if i have polished aluminum or SS do i have to do anything to it besides cleaning it to get it to adhere properly? if you scuff it and clear it do you lose the polish effect?

3 it didnt seem to me that the powder was flowing to the part too well, is it supposed to be noticeable or do you normally lose twice as much powder as gets on the piece?

thanks in advance, will be doing more tomorrow.
