I make do with a HF gun and powder from Prismatic. For an oven, I have a retired Yamato DX400 lab oven. FWIW, I think the HF gun is lousy.
Like any coating application, preparation is key. My workshop is small, it's such a pain to set up the powder coat system and even more of a nuisance to clean up, I try to not have to do any repeat work. That said, I usually double up on the cleaning and pre-baking of parts before spraying any powder.
Last winter, I de-chromed my cruiser ('05 Suzuki C90), coating most of the chrome in satin black. In addition to powder, I also sprayed and baked Cerakote on the engine covers and exhaust and sprayed Rustoleum truck bed liner on the chromed plastic parts.
