Where can I get some? A buddy just bought all the stuff to powder coat, oven included and I want to do my valve covers. I live in Hawaii and can't find anything here. :shrug:
Sonic Blue powder coat
- Thread starter navyht
- Start date
How much did it run him to buy all that stuff? That'd be sweet if I could powdercoat my own stuff...
Not sure. He did get a sprayer/gun, built his own oven and a sand blaster. I can get my stuff done for pretty much the cost of the powder if I can find it.
contact one of the big powder coating companies here on the mainland and ask if they can mix it up for you and ship it out.
^^ MMM Sexy!
I'm pretty sure Eastwood carries all different powder colors, at least they used to...
I geuss I should have been more specific. None of the suppliers I have looked at on-line list sonic blue. For those that have had theirs done what color is the closest match or did you have it made to match? Or did you just have a shop do it?
Dormant blue maybe??

the best way is to get color charts form ALL the powder suppliers; there are at least 25 I could rattle off. They all as a matter of course send out 2 LB samples. 2 LBS paints a WHOLE BUNCH!!! I could easily spray 10 sets of valave covers with two pounds!!!
You need to find a local place and look at their RAL color chart. Looking at mine, it looks like it would be something like the color 5017,5005, maybe 5019 or 5010. Hold the color chart next to your car, in the sun. If you want that metallic look then you can add it to your powder, but then you've got to clear it in powder too.
You can buy powder Here and you can get an RAL color chart from them for $10 too.
Edit: and yeah, 2 pounds will do a whole bunch.
