Hotcoat vs. Powdercoat  

++++

Can anyone tell me the difference between hotcoat and powdercoat, or are they the same thing?

They both use powder paint. The difference is that powder coating is applied through a standard electrostatic gun onto a grounded part. The hotcoat gun sprays the powder through a heater of some kind and the paint is actually gelling as it is applied, as it cools off on the part it should adhere and be cured.
