Default powder coating kit

I'm thinking about buying this kit so I can do my own powder coating. Has anyone had experience with this? I know its not as high quality as the guns that shops use, but I think it will get the job done. If anyone has one of these or has heard about them please comment on it. Thanks.

I would never powder coat my Si wheels. I like the brushed finish. I'd like to get one to powder coat parts for people and maybe a few of my own. I could make the $130 back easily. There's nothing wrong with putting wheels in the oven as long as they fit.

Thats what I had planned. My Mom's oven is 20 years old and shes about to get a new one. I'll keep the old one in my garage and if it burns out I'll look for one in a garage sale. Cooking and powder coating in the same oven is BAD.
