george12182 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I was wondering if there is a list anywhere of the different powder paint brands you guys use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadman Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Here is some info for you to read. In the 5th post I list list some paint manufacturers. one thing to remember, is that you will have to buy it by the lbs. not oz. Expect to pay $15 - $30/lb plus shipping, unless you are buying bulk. http://www.tackleunderground.com/forum/wire-baits/13026-kinds-powder-coats.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george12182 Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Thanks, I was really just kind of curious what was out there. I didn't realize how much it was in use through other industries until I checked out some of those companies. Since I'm really just using it for personal stuff I doubt I'd ever need more than a pound or so of a color. For just starting out I think pro tec has more than enough colors for me to start out with. If I decide to really get into it I may try some from that columbia coatings site. It looks like they have some neat colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germantown Bob Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I really like the Powder paints I get from "Herbies Magic Dust" It seems to gloss much easier than Pro Tec and they have a rpetty cool website...

Germantown Bob Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I know what he means,,,I used to uas fine grade craft glitters in clearcoat, but I really had to watch the heat or the polimer glitter would melt...Herbie's Glitters are all metallic flakes suspended in clearcoat and are a breexze to use and come out like looking thru gel-coat!
