You can handle the coated bullets with your gloved hands. Here my gasket on the 4oz canning jar i use is rubber but i renmove the rubber gasket and wrap the lid with teflon pipe tape. The #5 type plastic is good at building up static electricity.

Size Them As Required And Load.


I have reused the acetone after these sessions and i suspect the lanolin being. If there is paraffin in the lube, it will resist dissolving in the acetone and you will never get the powder coat to stick, so you should not expect miracles. Those methods are using acetone in conjunction with powder to coat the bullets and the shake and bake method.

If You Do Get The Lubed Ones, Soak Them In Acetone.


Use a rag or paper towel and moisten with acetone. Only modification i made was put galvanized screen in oven to put bullets on. Powder coating bullets step by step makes it easy to do!

If Proper Curing Has Been Obtained, There Should Not Be Any Of The Coating Removed From The Bullet And The Towel Should Be Free Of Any Colour Transfer From The Bullet.


Next i add the acetone to the powder. Dry the bullets and place it in the bucket you want to coat in. It mixes with the powder on a 1:1 ratio by.

Allow Your Bullets To Sit In A Sealed Container With Acetone, And Strain The Bullets After A.


Dan pbtp makes a solution for wet coating that is perfect for hard to coat parts. I preheat my bullets on the top of my toaster oven till they are warm to the touch but not hot enough to hurt when held in your hand. You definitely want to add enough to coat the bullets.

You Can Purchase Any Of These Things From Local Hardware Stores For Reasonable Prices.


The one i intend to try is clean wit acetone,heat to about 140 shake in tub covered with pc for about 15 seconds, dump on screen sift then bake at about 250 for 15 to 20 min. Which is how i felt…at first. You can also tumble them slowly in acetone to wash them.
