There’s really no point to powdercoat a plastic, the powder itself is basically plastic. It’s used on metal to give the metal a protective (and awesome looking) coat. ---

Will the raw aluminium start oxidizing after a blast? Or will they be just fine? I have a Juggernaut. Would you be able to blast that? I know from first hand experience that it got quite the tough anodization ---

> [@Eastfield](#): > > Will the raw aluminium start oxidizing after a blast? Or will they be just fine? > I have a Juggernaut. Would you be able to blast that? I know from first hand experience that it got quite the tough anodization The blasted aluminium has a tendency to dirty easily. Also prone to scratches in it’s fragile state and I highly recommend having at least a clear ano seal done or better yet have it anoed in a favored color. Your Juggernaut’s ano would not stand a chance in the blast cabinet. ---

> [@Navythrow](#): > > My goodness. Best looking thing in the thread, that Septopus looks SO GOOD. I have to say I’m a bit smitten with this one. At on point when it first went in to get the catch blasted the polish was shimmering through the blast. Next time I blast over a polish I’m going to go extra slow and extra light and try to catch the same effect I saw. It was impressive looking. ---
