Let me know how you make out..

Will do. Thanks Jim.

Well I've shot this color many times and have had no problem, maybe try a little longer. I think I left mine at 400 for about 15 mins..

Just sounds under cured.

Once the part hit 400 deg, I started timing for 10 Min. Then open the oven door all the way and let cool completely before removing.

Was that 10 mins @400 degrees once the part hit temp ? of was that placed in the oven for just 10 mins ?

[pipefighter248]

It was baked for 10 minutes at 400 deg. Exactly like the instructions say on Caswell's lollipop Blue. The parts was bar ends, a kickstand, and a rear grab bar for my motorcycle. Thanks.

Sounds like it's under cured. How long was it baked ? at what Temp? and what kind of part ?

[pipefighter248]

I have just started powder coating and am using Caswell's powder gun and powders. I am dealing with candy colors and the finish is smooth and looks good, however, whenever you rub your fingers across the finish it leaves little scratches like swirl marks on a car. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks.
