Powder coating a spin pole???

[Ted Reshetiloff]

I would be interested in who has an oven big enough to powder coat your pole outside of a serious manufacturing setup. I have a similar situation with a pole I bought used and have since stripped. It is not too hard to etch the bare aluminum then apply several coats of a high build primer followed by a hard finish like awlgrip or even something like Interlux Interthanes Plus. But for $150 if its really a powder coating job I would say go for it. Either way a piece of leather sewn on in certain areas of the pole will go a long way towards keeping it nice looking.
