Electrostatic Magic powdercoat system
Anyone else order one of these at Newark for delivery as they were out of stock?
They said they should have more in Thursday last week for despatch Friday but not received anything yet

I bought mine from Exeter last year when they were out of stock, and it took a couple of weeks to get it.
BTW, don't bother trying to use a hot air gun on anything bigger than a small bracket, it just doesn't work properly and the coating falls
off.

Thanks for the comment re the heat gun mike looks like im going to argos at the weekend for a cheap table top oven
Got a reply from them to say they had had a problem with their delivery but should be with me thurs friday
Do you think it would be a good Idea to have an extra cup as I am having 2 colours, black and orange and dont really want them mixing.

OK thanks mike Looking forward to getting it and having a play.
Got some small brackets and plates to do so the heat gun should be ok for them even if my arm starts to ache lol Just reread the instruction 10 mins
after the surface temp reaches 180.

Well I hope you would hurry up as I have 8 wheel arch fixings that need coating and am going back to Alg*** again in less than 1 week for two
weeks....so if I get them to you by next Tuesday, could they be ready in 3 weeks time.....

Hi Andy,
Thanks for that, I'll see if I can get some new ones on Saturday, I'll get 16 just in case.
Which side of Coventry do you work as I am north of B'ham airport and can get into coventry in 15-20 mins. We could meet up at lunch time or at
night as I am going to the south brum meeting on the m40 later in the evening.
Does not matter when I get them back as I will be away for 2 weeks and then I am going on 4 weeks leave for the whole of August up in Scotland.
