Neo-Stoicism is a syncretic movement, combining a revival of Stoicism with Christianity, founded by the Belgian Humanist Justus Lipsius (1547 - 1606). It is a practical philosophy which holds that the basic rule of good life is that one should not yield to the passions (greed, joy, fear and sorrow), but submit to God.
Powder coatings have been applied successfully over chrome plating for many years. I recommend that you first neutralize the surface and remove any salts from the plating system by first rinsing the parts in virgin DI water. Of course, don't forget to dry the parts before powder coating.
Powder coating is like painting your car, you may be able to do it your self but you will not get the quality or durability of an. experienced shop. An experienced shop will have all the right tools to get the best possible quality job. The hobby guns you.
