My powdercoating is going very well. The advice to go with Smokes was spot on. I learned my oven does run much higher than the gauge. Maybe why my shorter runs still worked well. One coat on four of the five colors tried. No messing with BBs anymore or scrap containers. I have always used Tupperware but found, great,small, containers at WM. They come in a two pack, with, two, flip locks. They have the 5 #. Boolets are looking fantastic.
congrats and welcome to the club!
C'mon man!! We need to see the bullets!!!
fyi 5# signifies 5 lbs. #5 is read number 5.
I know, I am pedantic, and apologize if I have offended you.

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

I may be discharged and retired but I'm sure I did not renounce the oath that I solemnly swore!
No offence taken, just a past comment to others and pointing out my space between 5 and # which could be read as I intended.
I just wanted to point out my metal trays that really stick boolets, being all stood up, but no messing with foil. The pans are newish and had me banging them loose with a rubber mallet lol. They break in thou and work well
If you knock them out while they're hot they won't stick.
Yes but i usually end up letting them sit, doing something else. The trays get a nice coating of colors and get a lot better with even coating all around. I guess that they are more stable when cold,also
Line your trays with a silicon baking matt and they will unstick real easy.

That's what I do.
Same - bought my rolls on Amazon for a few bucks, never regretted the purchase.
I was reconsidering after last batch, they were clingy. I wonder if they balance the same, I may have tried in the past but not sure
