    Checked in with two major powdercoat powder suppliers in US. Not the desk or order folks. The engineers for powder makers who come
    up with the product formulas for the powder themselves.

    Sorry, Claude.

    Powdercoat is not recommended for gas tanks. They really surprised I asked made a strong point/case not to use powder on Gas tanks.

    The formulas for some of the new clear coats on the market today are amazing like hi impact clears from Tamco. Resistant to industrial solvents, brake fluids and other solvents
    just make them hard to use powder.

    Oh this is not a criticism of his fine workmanship. But a heads up on powder product itself.

    One national race team here in town in Gncc re powder coats their frames appx ever 4 to 6 wks
    that's a complete teardown to bare frame each time.
