Inexpensive powder coating??

Boy, either powder coating has gotten a lot cheaper in the last few
years, or the folks around here have it confused with gold plate. I was
quoted $75 for a roughly 12 x 20 chunk of steel. I could have had it
painted at a local paint shop for less than that (as long as I wasn't
particular about the color). Coulda done it myself for about $10 cost
for paint & primer.
