I've been playing around trying to powder coat boolits off and on for the past year with not much success, I've been using Harbor freight powder and couldn't make it work. I finally stopped at a powder coating shop in town and the guy gave me a sample of a bag he had laying there open, brought it home and did the shake n bake method with a #5 cottage cheese container and air soft pellets and I noticed right away how nicely the were coated! Baked them at 400 for 20 min on a hardware cloth rack and they turned out perfect! I'm hooked now!!!! Good powder is everything!
