I am thinking of doing that, haven't done any research yet.

I'm kind of out to lunch on powder coating. I've heard/seen it's benefits...A friend bought a tool box that mounts across the bed of his pickup, the powder coating was ok for a couple or years, but is coming off now....

Might to good for a cat, that's stored inside.....

I think the big problem with things that you buy that are pwdercoated are from china and I doubt the surfaces are prepped properly PRIOR to coating.....

I think the key to powdercoat staying on is correct surface prep...sand/glass beading etches the surface and gives powder or ANY paint some "tooth" to stick and stay properly....
