[TR] Satin Black Powder coat

[Patrick Baize]

A better powder coat material can be found here

I have eastwood and Ohio custom  powder.  most of my eastwood powder is 
chunky, clumpy.  where the ohio custom powder is still powdery.   I've had 
them the same amount of time. I also find I get better results with the Ohio 
Custom.
