Re: Got my Eastwood Poweder Coat Kit today...

So here's what I've got:
You can see the custom made hanging device I gabbed up using a ball pein hammer stuck in the end of the hyd jack handle.
The first coat I applied to the puller was only about 1.5 psi-perfect for little parts. Then I went up to the recommended 8 psi and wound up using alot more powder and making alot more dust. which just blows right off BTW. The pic of my fat hand holding the puller is trying to show the lack of coverage in the "crotch" of the V. I would hang it how I'm holding it if I did another one. The key is for my saturn. I put some foil around it and dusted it. I used a 13/16" socket, stuck the key in the 3/8 drive hole and shimmed it up with a wad of foil. You can also see my "Custom Deluxe" toaster oven that I used. It's about 9"W x 6"D x 3.5"H. I had to lay the puller center down on the rack in it, so now I've got a couple of bare spots where it touched the grate.
