Powder Coating

Just wondered if anyone had facilities to powdercoat stuff?

I was thinking of getting the firebox and base powdercoated on the SE2.

Will powdercoating stand up to the heat on the firebox??

There's some diy stuff here, not cheap for a couple of small bits though.

I had some parts powdercoated a few years back in the UK, and the guy had a minimum charge of about £30---
