I do a ton of powder coating lead but I have never tried tungsten. My question is can tungsten be powder coated or should they be painted. I want to by bulk from bulk tungsten to save some money and to do differtent colors other than green and black. Thanks in advance.

Air brush thanks for your reply. Is there any thing special I need to do to the tungsten to make the powder coat stick better or is heat, dip and bake ok.
