I recently bought a new Scat 36hp doghouse fan shroud that came w/ CAD plating but I want to get it powdercoated Gloss Black. Does anyone know if I will run into any issues doing this? I'm a "newbie"  Huh(call it cherry or whatever) when it comes to powdercoat, so any imput will be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks

Just make sure whoever you get to do it puts silicone plugs in all the holes or you will have a mess. Not very friendly stuff to try and get out of the threads. I powder coated my own it needs to prepped really well just like if you were going to paint it.
