Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] K-350 Powder coating

["Dan H." <jmachine@adelphia.net>]

Robby,
On doubt, power coating is tough stuff and you get a beautiful finish to
boot but how easy is it to repair?  My first time out I got some scratches
from chafing up against a dock with aluminum corner brackets on it.  With
the Imron paint I uses all I had to do is mix up a few ounces and touch it
up.  How will you repair power coating?

One other thought. When paint gets scratched and starts rusting, you see it.
Will corrosion be as noticeable with power coating?
