I've had this thing forever but I've been waiting until I could use my buddies sandblaster to clean the parts up first. I deffinately need one of those now as well. But on to the powder-coating. I have the Hot-Coat system sold through Eastwood. Other members on here have this kit as well and say they like it. I must say after using it I am very pleased. It came with everthing I needed (except for the masks). It's so easy to use and the parts turned out great. On to the pics: Here you can see my very elaborate powder-coating bay I came up with, lol. Hey, trust me it helped as this stuff can make a mess. As you can see I just taped some cardboard together to make a box to contain all the extra powder in instead of it coating everything in the garage. You can see the stove in the background I used. Just a normal kitchen stove I picked up for free awhile back. Works great.
 Again the system works very well. You attach the power clip to the part (or a wire holding the part). Then with one hand to push a button that starts the "charge". Then with the other hand you spray away. Just coat everything until there are no bare spots and your done. Very simple.
 Bake for 20 min at 400 degrees. Cool and enjoy. This is a after and before pic of a coil pack attachment brace. (sorry, forgot to have the flash on)
 Here's a few before pics. Teh kit also came with heat resistant plugs to use and some fiberglass tape to cover areas you didn't want to get powder on or in (like in the top of the powersteering canister.
 Here's a valve cover after having the powder applied
 And the afters
 The color I used is Ford Dark Blue as that's what I was using before with paint and it matches a few other things as well. My TT is white so the colors should go good together.
