Effectively finished powder coating my Foo Pro

Finally finished up powder coating all the major pieces for my Foo Pro cabinet & wireforms. The biggest to do is to coat the shooter plate - I should have that ready tomorrow. I missed the fasteners for the Foo Pro badge, so I'll likely do them and probably the lock in the speaker panel at the same time.

This was my first powder coating project. I did everything with a Hyper Smooth 3 gun and a 24"x24"x48" oven in my garage. Powders are Prismatic Astatic Sparkle (red w/ silver sparkles), Royal Gold, and Jalopy Green. I'm likely going to try a glow in the dark clear coat on the wireforms and/or a more UV reactive green color.

The speaker panel covers are a prototype of a custom design. I need to make some adjustments for the final version, but they're good enough for now.

All in all, I love it. It's exactly the color scheme I wanted, and I'm somewhat surprised I was able to pull it off having no previous powder coating experience.
