Walk in cooler

Post by SomethingMetal »

I have found a good size walk in cooler and I am thinking I can turn it into an oven for powder coating. Anybody know anyone who has done this? Only question is the insulation in b/w the panels. It should be able to handle heat right? Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

I am not sure, but most walk in coolers I have seen use a foam spray in type insulation. You will want to check this out to see what type of heat the insulation can handle. It may melt or even be flammable at the temps needed for powder coating.
