Powder coating & Humidity ?

Post by larryw »

Greetings!! I found other PC threads old & locked so figured I'd start another!!
I hear humidity makes PCing impossible, others say doesn't matter, even others
say, do this, try that & gotta use this special Casters Delight deodorant????
Middle of monsoon season here in AZ. High temps, monster high humidity,
I'm wanting to PC some gas checked .357's, have a good thermometer, oven
& powder, using Smokes Wine Red. Any personal experiences??
Thanks in advance. Take care & be safe..

Coat your bullets ( shake & bake ) in an air conditioned room where the humidity is low. Then take them outside to bake.
This has worked fine for me.

Agreed. Where the oven is should not matter.
