Does the heat required to cure the clear coat not affect the vinyl below or is that a special vinyl ie foil ?

Liked the demo, great powder coating tips indeed!

Out of the main 30 questions about powdercoating decals, I was the one who asked 27 of them. The other 3 was from my other account

Great Video! Helpful info even though I'm having someone else powder coat my calipers. Subscribed. Well Done.

Good stuff. Thanks for the video. Of course, I have a ton of white Oracal 651, so I guess I'll just use it for masks. I'll have to give some of the black or silver stuff a go sometime.

Do you find that the vinyl shrinks at all?

So I just started powder coating. I used some of the yellow tape and like you said it was extremely difficult to get off. The line that I wanted crisp wasn’t at all crisp. You mentioned not letting it get cold so do I need to remove the tape as soon as the part comes out of the oven? I did the color and then clear, so I left the tape on for both processes. But I did let it cool before I pulled the tape. Do I need to pull and re-tape between layers or just make sure it comes off when I’m done curing the last step? Also, had some of the pinholes you had. You said “just make a quick adjustment to the gun and they’ll disappear.” What adjustments do you make to fix it?

not so much right when it comes out of the oven with the yellow tape, but definitely will its still warm/hot

The tape is Kapton or polyamide tape.

How about using a decal as a stencil? Let's say i wanna powder coat my calipers in Oxblood Hues with Transparent Copper lettering over a Super chrome II base, the idea is Spray super chrome II Cure, add Decal, Spray Oxblood Hues, partial cure, Remove decal, Spray Transparent Copper and wipe(so that TC is only in the letters) full cure, does it sound right?

Have learned a lot from your videos. One question. You recommend Green Diamond 30/60 however no one will ship to Orlando, FL. Is there other blast media that can be used that's similar to the Green Diamond?

Do you cure it at a lower temp and longer duration because of the vinyl?

@UnknownCoatings

3 жыл бұрын

Nope, I follow the standard cure schedule

I realize that I'm late to the game, but what was the specific clear used on these calipers

So do you cure the clear normal temp or do you do lower temp for longer so the sticker doesn’t melt

What torque do you set the 4 e-torx bolts to when reassembling the calipers?

Would you advise using black iron sheets of 16 gauge 4’x8’ for $75 tax included each, to build a 4’x8’ oven? I could powder coat them. Would this work for on the cheap. Completely DELETED FBOOK. So I cannot ask questions to group any longer.
