Another thought that looked interesting. Somewhere recently, I saw a
DIY powder-coating that might do the trick. Friends had their frame
done professionally and liked the results. What I recall of the process
reminds me of a fired ceramic finish: Very tough and thick.


Do you have more information on the DIY powder-coating? I've got a
few things I'd like to try it on.


Try http://www.powdercoatingonline.com/h...dercorner.html for
basic information.

Apparently it is do-able in a standard oven but the devil is in the
preparation and applying the coating.
