Are there any colors or glosses of the Eastwood to specifically avoid?
I haven't heard of any bad ones. When this all kicked off, I
knew folks who started with the harbor freight red and the
Quality Control was spotty. So people migrated to better
powder coats.
On one of the boards a poster from either Wisconsin
or Michigan used Eastwood Ford Light Blue. It works for me.
That's the lead in to your question.
Since then, The additional ones I have actual exposure to are
Eastwoods Black Stardust, Full Gloss Clear, Metallic Red, Appliance
White, Hi Gloss Jet Black and Grey. So from that Limited exposure
I tend to say there isn't one that's bad. The guys I cast and
shoot with tend to act like they have a love affair with cast bullets
and get wrapped around how striking they can make them look.
For me, I just want the easiest most hassle free way of covering
the bullet to keep from having my shop and guns from being
crapped up. I hate cleaning guns almost as much as using tumble
lube or a Lubri-sizer.
I've got about a pound of the Ford Light Blue left and I "think"
I'm going to go with the Full Gloss Clear when it's gone because
any debris or flakes that come off during sizing won't leave
visible pieces like the light blue does. Whatever I generate will
still be there but won't be as visible. Keeps the wife happy.
