[QUOTE="69ST, post: 192293, member: 5"] Powder is basically one-and-done. There's very little in the way of body work possible and no touch-ups...a sky-high chance of damage being immortalized. Stripping powdercoat is a brutal process and no shop is willing to freely share the details for that reason. With some parts it's no big deal, none of which are sheetmetal. I'd use a 2-stage (basecoat/clearcoat) paint system. However, it was originally a single-stage enamel and that could be used to good effect. Non-catalyzed paint requires no more safety equipment that a twin-cartridge respirator. And one rattlecan is more paint than is needed to paint a single frame. [/QUOTE]
