For small occasional jobs, the cost of doing powder coatings would be
prohibitive.
A spray bomb and some patience will get the same results.
The main advantage of powder coating is a savings on paint costs as there is
virtually no waste in overspray, fast drying time, (good for production
lines) and of course environmental,....less airborne polution.
But these are only realized by manufacturers who do enough "painting" to
offset the costs.
If you just paint the occasional lawn chair or birdhouse every second
weekend, the costs are not worth it.
