The first batch I did, powder ended up everywhere. I was wearing a mask and goggles and didn’t really notice the layer of powder on everything until the next morning. I’ll probably it try out tomorrow with a few bullets and the HF powder to see how it works.
Looks like a good idea. I use a cardboard box. I'm guessing you might need to tip it on its side to get your powder coating gun at the correct angle to coat the vertical surfaces of the bullet. If you spray this way from above, I don't know if you're going to get coverage of the sides of the bullet. I'll be interested to hear if you can.
