painting over powder coat
I have been using sheet metal for my scuttle and various other parts from cabinet panels (free).
Can powder coat be sanded and painted or does it need to be taken down to bare metal?
Thanks
Dale

As lOng as the current finish is ok so you don't need to correct chips etc when sading back I'd just rub down and prep and paint as
normal.

I agree. Just use some wet 'n' dry to take the sheen off and wet spray on top.
To remove powder coat I use a strong chemical stripper followed by a grit blast prior to re-treating.
I've over 28 years in dealing with magnesium wheels. Refurbishment and can powder coat most metal parts. Visit my web site if you wish..
