    Default Powder Coating MAgnesium

    I've heard some dreadful stories of Magnesium stuff being powder coated...is this true? Is it hard to coat or is it just like any other metal? I got a customer wanting magnesium Dodge valve covers done and I told him to hold off and I'll get an answer for him on that. What do you guys think??
