Powder coating is impervious to oils, grease and petrol.  It bakes at 200 degrees Celsius and therefore is good for components working at temperatures below that.  When applied correctly, it is IMHO as good if not better that 2K (much cheaper faster and has a better in consistency of finish).  It is the preferred finish for suspension and motor parts for guys like Troy Trapenier etc… so that’s saying something.
