I finally finished my powdercoating curing oven I've been working on for a while now. It's big enough that I will be able to PC wheels two at a time.
The heat source is a 45000 BTU propane infrared heater. I wanted to be able to take the whole thing apart because it's too big to keep in the garage all the time so I had to weld bolts to the frame and nuts to metal straps in order to rig up a quick mounting system (that's why it took so long, plus I was making my plan as I went). At the top, there is a grille where the parts will be hanging from, I'll put a winch on my garage ceiling to raise the grille/parts in and out of the oven. Pic of the whole thing together. ![]() Now I just have to try it see if it works, I friggin' hope so with the amount of time I spent on this project!!! One quick question, I want to PC a valve cover flat black, do I need to use a high temperature powder for a valve cover or would a regular powder do? Thanks in advance for any information. |

Thanks for the reply. This is going to be my setup, would you say I should go high temp? I did the exhaust manifold, turbo outlet, and turbine housing with TechLine Black Satin.

I did a valve cover for a eagle talon, and the header came up and then down and was very close to the valve cover..
It did discolor the valve cover.. Your application looks like it wouldnt require the high temp thou

Use your judgment on your setup. Personally I think you will be ok with regular powder. Worst case just test it and see how it holds up. It is YOUR setup anyways and you can always strip and re shoot. |

IMO it would be a Shame to PC that awsome valve cover flat black.. That sucker would look awsome with a silver base and a candy top coat!
