Flexeel 1/4" x 15 Polyurethane Coil Hose

• 15 feet of hose
• Made from polyurethane
• Rated at -40 degrees to +165 degrees Fahrenheit with a working pressure of 200 PSI
• Fittings not included
• The 1/4" diameter hose retains its flexibility even in the coldest of conditions

This unit is just about perfectly thought through and the material fantastic. It is strong, flexible whenever, and while it feels a little strange greasy, sticky, soft, it handles very well. The slight length difference on each end is smartly designed, and the diameter of the "permanent" curl is perfect.

Goodyear 3825R300 Premium Yellow Rubber Air Hose - 3/8" x 25', 300 PSI

If you need an airhose in sub-freezing weather, forget plastic ! This hose is strong, robust, withstands all the hazards of a construction site and stays flexible. It's not as easy to keep clean as plastic, so is less suitable for indoor use.

I was looking for a pliable yet well made hose for my shop air guns and this certainly fits the bill. It is very pliable and well made. I highly recommend it.

Craftsman Complete Portable Powder Coating System

• Professionally powder coat any metal object that can withstand a 400 degree cure.
• Repair and refinish items like: Automotive Components, Outdoor Fixtures, Marine Equip and much more.
• Includes:Powder Coating gun and matching polystyrene carry case.
• Instruction Guide, high-temp masking tape, hooks and plugs (10 packs)
• Quality manufactured by Craftsman Tools.

Yes screw will break if you have GORILLA FINGERS.

Otherwise, this is quite a good buy for the money, and will be more than sufficient for the person who only coats a few items here and there.

Next most economcal would be an item from harbor freight for around $80, BUT you also would need to have an air compressor.

Most useful for the GUN Hobbyist who wants something like Dura coat on a weapon.

Sending out, can be VERY costly.

Purchase a dedicated toaster oven, large size, or the following infrared unit for larger items:Optimus H-5210 Infrared Quartz Radiant Heater

ONLY the metal (not the air temp) needs to come up to temp for about 20 minutes, so larger items may require two infrared units. But for the total investment at under $100, this cannot be beat,

Columbia coatings is a VERY good place to acquire the coating powder, especially the specialty powder for firearms.

ENJOY..

I bought this with a light dose of skepticism but have been *extremely* pleased with it thus far. I've used it once a day to coat small items with various powders I already have.

I also own the Harbor Freight unit that requires an air compressor but at the moment don't have my air compressor setup and only wanted to coat small items that would easily fit in a toaster oven that my wife graciously donated to the project (after I purchased a new one for her, of course.) I had already read some of the reviews on here complaining about the back blast when the trigger was pulled all the way, so I devised a simple gasket made from 2mm thick foam sheet (available at most any hobby store and even big-box stores in the hobby section.) Simply take the cup and mash it down on the foam to create the inner circle, cut it out with a hobby knife and cut the outer with a pair of scissors. Note that this unit has a variable trigger to it, it's not a binary trigger.

I've seen on the interwebs where people were concerned about getting additional cups, but it turns out that this same gun is still available under a variety of names for far more than it's available here on Amazon (hence the title to my review!) It turns out that Summit Racing also sells the cups, and I picked up an additional four cups at ~$10 each with another ~$10 in shipping. The cup that comes with the gun comes with two foam plugs to put in, in case you don't want to empty the cup out but want to store it. The additional cups ideally would come with them, but did not. I fabricated up some simple plugs of my own with some packing foam and sticks and now have 4 colors on hand, leaving my last cup in the gun empty for whatever color suits my fancy when the others don't.

FYI, Sears did not "discontinue" this product they just slapped their name on it as they did not make them. They simply quit selling them because at $180, no one was really buying them despite how great they work. Quite frankly, I think it's a stroke of genius design as all others require a huge high voltage power supply (very clunky and large) and an air compressor (far larger and clunkier, sometimes not portable at all!) I'm actually able to coat my items on a small desk in my office and use a toaster oven to bake the parts; the desk is next to a door so if it starts to smell or smoke, I just open the door and put a fan in the way. The power supply is relatively small (it's like a big wall-wart, about the size of a couple of boxes of kitchen matches) and has two cords coming out one for the gun, and a slim green one with an alligator clip for the ground. The cords are easily 10ft+ long so you're not tethered too close to an outlet, making it very easy to work with.

While some may complain about the "cheap plastic" feel of the unit, I for one appreciate the insulation of plastic to keep me from being inadvertently tazered by the unit (remember, this unit uses 15kV DC to create the static charge needed to make the powder stick! Don't touch the tip while you're spraying!) The cups are made of pretty hard plastic too I suspect if they were dropped hard enough they may shatter so be careful.

I'm not sure what "screw" breaks but there is a cup lock (the red twist knob on the left side) that locks the cup in place so it doesn't fall out while you're coating; just need to be aware of what position it's in when you want to install/remove it and you'll be fine. If you make the gaskets I mention above, you might have to push the cup back with a little force to get it into place. The whole unit comes in a real nice blow-molded plastic box that also includes a small roll of silicon masking tape and silicon plugs for masking off areas you don't want to get the coating in. (Remember, powder coat melts into a single form.)

Other than the minor issues, this thing is excellent! There are no "specific" or "Sears" powders that need to be used with this unit either any powder coat from anywhere will work fine. Harbor Freight, Columbia Coatings, Powder by the Pound, Eastwood and Caswell all sell the powders. You can get anything from plain-jane white, gloss black, base colors, or even translucent colors and metallics. (There's even a real nice single-stage chrome available!) I already had a variety from larger car restoration projects but I'll be getting more for the smaller things. Don't balk at getting this unit, you won't regret it! Use your favorite search engine and you can find just about any color you dream up (and even more!)

Product was as advertised and shipped in a reasonable amount of time.

When I got it, it was well packaged and all items listed were there.

When I tried it, it worked very well with the only problem being the powder "leaked" around the back end of the cup if I accidentally pulled the trigger all the way. This could potentially make a mess.

Bottom line, it does what I want and would buy it again if I needed one.

Product shipped fast. The system comes in a convenient case holding the gun and accessories securely. For under $30 there really is nothing to complain about considering other systems start at $100+. If you've ever considered trying powder coating you really can't go wrong with this system.

Powder coat paint isn't easy to find at Sears but there are plenty of online stores stocking a wide variety of paint at reasonable prices. It's worth noting that this system does not come with any sample paint.

There has been mention of a fragile powder canister lock and that the reliability of the unit is poor. I am not quite sure how rough folk can be,but I have found the unit well made, ultra reliable, gives fantastic and quite professional results,has handled every powder I've thrown at it ( and ive put 30 pounds through it so far), and above all, EASY to use. Yes. You have to treat it more care than you would a hammer,but a gentle hand and commonsense maintainence is all it needs to last for years. The only flaw is the small powder canister size,but it will still last for most small jobs and is very fast and easy to re-fill. This gun is the ideal entry to powder coating, and for most folk will be all they ever need.

Campbell Hausfeld DH4200 General Purpose Spray Gun

• Changes from siphon to pressure feed for use with a variety of materials
• Convertible from non bleeder to bleeder style for use with standard or tankless air compressors
• Works with paint tanks and remote canisters

I have used this spray gun in a professional spray booth back in the 1970's. Held up well in a small to medium size cabinet shop. When I set up my own home shop, I was happy to see the same model was availble in 2000 when I gave up on a cheap airless sprayer (horrible quality and experience with a cheap airless sprayer). I am quite happy with this gun. I shoot polyurethane, lacquer and enamel. There are 3 adjustments that can be made to the mixture, spray pattern and amount sprayed. Takes some trial and error to get it right, but then it works fine. Needs to be run clean as paint will drip off the nozzle when the tip is partly clogged. Otherwise, when you figure the settings that work for you, this unit works well.

Bought this to spray interior doors during a remodel. I have a 120 max PSI Husky air compressor, which actually made it hard to find spray guns of any quality that would be compatible with my compressor (used mainly for airbrushing). The Campbell spray gun did the job nicely. While I'm pretty familiar with spray guns and compressors, the gun was easy to set up and use, and I would assume it would be just as easy for someone with no experience with spray guns.

The gun comes with extra tips and clear instructions, as well as cleaning oil and necessary tightening tools. Easy to use, easy to clean. I have no complaints and am glad I purchased this. I probably would not try to use this to paint very large projects, say, the interior of a house or siding, but would be fine for baseboards, doors, trim, playhouses, fences, and other similarly sized projects.

I have been looking for a decent replacement for my inflator as well as a compressor that could do a little more. This refurbed Rockworth is a gem. It came looking totally new, with accessories and hose. The hose is basic and low capacity so I upgraded to a Goodyear 46501 3/8 inch. Directions were good. The size and power of this small, portable tool blows away many other choices. I have seen comparable units for 3 or 4 times the $$. The pressure gauges are accurate and the unit holds it's pressure for hours! I plan to use it for a nail gun, sprayer as well as easily airing my tires and toys. Great buy!

I wanted to upgrade to a better compressor from my cheap 1 gallon pancake compressor. I chose this compressor based on its size, price, portability, and reviews. First off, this thing arrived lightning quick! I had it on my porch within two days of ordering, far faster than the usual 7-10 days with standard (free) shipping from Amazon. It came in a big box with triple-thick cardboard padding. The listing says "Factory Reconditioned" but man, you would never know it to look at it! It looks brand new! The paint even smells fresh! Unlike other "reconditioned" units, you would never know that this was a used product. My hat is off to the rebuild team at Rockworth! The user manual, however, looked like it had been dropped on a gravel road and run over a few times.

The listing also states that there are no accessories included. This is incorrect. My unit came with 25' of (cheap) coil hose, rated 200 PSI; two male nipples (steel); two female nipples (Steel); one brass quick disconnect; one brass tire chuck, and both a male and female union; two inflation needles; a blow gun with four nozzles; a (cheap) plastic tire gauge; and a roll of (cheap) teflon tape. Not the best kit in the world, but far more than I was expecting, and certainly more than enough to get the unit working right out of the box.

The unit is compact and not too noisy, if you know what a compressor is supposed to sound like. If you don't, then it doesn't matter what compressor you buy, you will still be surprised by how loud they are. It is not too heavy and it is well-balanced and easy to carry. The big rubber feet are nice and stable, and the rubber hand grip is a nice touch. The drain valve is nice, especially when you live in a humid climate. The pressure relief valve is big and lets a lot of air out quickly. The unit has two gauges, not one I don't think that's specified in the listing but it would be nicer if both gauges were on the front of the unit.

I would have given it five stars but for the manual looking like it was chewed by a dog, and for the one time it over-inflated and blew out the relief valve for some reason. Still, if that's the only thing I have to watch out for on this compressor, then I believe I have made a great deal!

I purchased this compressor because of the reviews it received from other Amazon patrons. So far, they were right on the money! I used this unit a few times for various projects and it performed as expected. What else can I say?

I wanted a compressor that filled tires quickly, was fairly quiet and compact. I had owned other compressors in the past...some smaller, some larger. This one is just right for my small garage. It filled my truck tires at 50+lbs in quick time, regenerated the tank adequately and fast, and is pretty lightweight. The only disappointment is that it is not as quiet as I would like it to be; although it is quieter than my last compressor that was priced lower (a joke of a compressor and sold it). Since I was impressed with the quick fill rate, I would recommend this compressor as a step up from the under $100 compressors. Great price good compressor.
