Powder Paint

[poppop]

Has anyone ever used this company for powder paint?

Columbia Coatings

This company's paint is industrial paint and its a lot cheaper than Pro-Tec. They seem to have a lots of color selections.

I know a lot of people use Pro-Tec and I have some of it also, I just didn't know if there is a compelling reason to use Pro-Tec.

Looks like they have some hot colors. I liked the mirror sample kit for 20 bucks. Seems like you get quit a few 2 oz samples

I guess the reason Pro-Tec is used the most is that it has a great reputation for quality. I started out using it, and although I have tried other powders, this seems to be the leader for my usage.

I use both, but if Pro-Tec has a color I prefer it because some of the other powders don't do as well in the fluid bed. They will still work, don't get me wrong, but not as fluffy. Pro-Tec seems to fluff better and easier.

Personally ease will over do cheap for me every time.

I've never tried it myself,having invested pretty heavy in the protec powder paint.At a fishing show earlier this month there was a booth selling Herbie's Magic Dust.Very impressive stuff in some colors that protec doesn't carry. It's sold in 1 oz. for $2.99 or 4oz. for $8.99. I bought 4 colors and I really like the results.Powder seems a little finer than protec.It may be worth checking out.

Have been using CC for years - top notch outfit and really good prices. They have some excellent products - really like the illusion stuff.

The paint mixes really well when you are trying to mix your own colors. Have mixed CC paint with CSI paint also.

LD - I like using the mirror black with the holgraphic glitter.

I like that you can buy a 1/4 pound reasonable and not have to go all the way to a pound for high dollar like Pro-Tec, but some of their paints are not near as fluffy as Pro-Tec and I just think some of their paints are heavier. I notice Pro-Tec has added colors that use to be only from CC, LOL!
