    Well smoke does not sell it cheaper then where he gets it.
    So I would have to say powder by the pound.

    $9 a lb. It's an awesome black. I use it all the time. Also the Astatic Red. It's a bit more money.
    This is an interesting site. You say you have used the ink black? Did you shake and bake it or spray? I am looking to add two new colors to my current Flame Red, Carolina Blue and Clear from Smoke. I haven't got far enough in to see what they charge for freight.

    If you want drit cheap pc. Find a local powder coat company.

    Ask if you can have some overspray.

    That stuff is useless to them. They normally sweep it up and trash it.

    A little bit a powder goes a looooooooooong way. I have many brands: Cardinal, RAL, Eastwood, Tiger Drylac, Dupont, Sherwin Williams..... These all work, some better when mixed. Experiment and have fun. I have purchased from Grmps ($), Smoke ($) and Eastwood ($$ store is local) all good values. Smoke's Sampler is great way to get 3 colors to start...

    I started by ordering a 3 color sample pack from Smoke’s. After coating a lot of boolits I still have a lot of all 3 colors. The material is very inexpensive even if you buy the best.

    I'm not sure you can use the parameters 'cheap & best' in the same sentence regarding 'quality'....



    Spend the $'s for the 'best' & it'll last so long that you'll forget when you bought it. Hmmmmm, I guess you could call that 'cheap'!

    Exactly what I thought when I read the title of this thread. “Cheap” and “best” are generally mutually exclusive.
