What types of powder coatings are available from your company?
Will the gun you offer be sufficient? I only spray maybe 3 to 4 a week.
My current process involves total disassembly,solvent cleaning,sandblasting with 80 grit aluminium oxide,parkerizing then the teflon application. What surface preparations would I need to take to use powder coating? Polishing the surface is too time consuming. Wouldnt a sandblasted surface help adhesion? I do not require a glossy finish.
Besides black I am currently using OD green and muted tan colors, is there any equivalents in powder?
Sorry for so many questions and thanks in advance for any help you may be able to offer.

Did you ever powdercoat any firearms? I was considering doing one myself...
