Stopped in at Harbor Freight today to stock up on my favorite color for painting bullets and was told that they no longer make Red powder coat paint! I was shocked, anyone else heard this. I did hear it from one other person today. Sure hope it's not true but We'll see.

All they have here is black & white. I'm told the same thing.

I was wanting the red also, but, it is NO MORE. I live in New Mexico and Albuquerque does not have it.

Smoke 4320 on cast boolits forum has a sale going on. I have used his stuff and it works good. It might not be as cheap as harbor freight, but you can count on it. Just putting it out there.

I've been using Smoke's Jet black for a long time & it works great, just hoping I can find more HF red, I've had better luck with it than any other powder.

Well Dick... this is a bit funny that a “hard as nails”, 6’2” former college running back, Veteran, all around outdoorsman, and handgun hunting stud... In 2019, he is pacing the aisles of Harbor Freight because he has fear he can’t color his bullets lipstick red. This is great stuff.
Time to go “Goth” I guess... ask Callshot, I think he’s in the city now so he’s progressive. Your daughter and wife can help change your fingernail polish.

Dick did call me about it the other day but I only had a little left myself. I guess I’ll need to keep it in the safe now so it doesn’t come up missing.

I've been using Smoke and find the black to have the best coverage. I like his colors as well.
The yellow is the toughest to get right.

WENT TO THE LOCAL "MADE IN CHINA" EMPORIUM aka HARBOR FREIGHT, MY FIRST TRIP EVER TO A HF STORE. ASKED AND THEY ONLY GET BLACK AND WHITE PC, THEY DO NOT GET RED PC ANY MORE.
SO DICK: WILL EITHER HF BLACK OR WHITE WORK? OR ARE THERE DIFFERENCES BESIDES COLOR?

I have mixed HF black and white (makes gray) and got pretty fair coverage with them . Red is the best though.I also found the black to be kinda clumpy at time . B just run it through a strainer and it works better.
