Sanjay,
1) Phosphate should have blue or gold color after application all of the time, not just some of the time.
2) Light colored epoxy paints overbake very easily, it's not always the temperature, sometimes it's the duration in the oven. Follow the manufacturers technical data sheet for time in the oven and temp settings.
3) Powder doesn't cover corners very well, you have to experiment with different gun tips and kV settings to find out what works best for your situation. Another alternative is spraying the corners with an aerosol match to the powder after the parts are cured.
