[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4152302, member: 15054"] I do not get fuming from my lee pots unless there is something in the lead like wood or plastic or grease. I preheat my molds by laying them on top of the melting pot. Some molds need a propane torch but I never thought of a hot plate. You can get hotplates for 20 or less new. I do powder coat most of my lead bullets. Harbor freight Red was my favorite but they quit selling the red. White is thin and I do not like it at all for bullets. I ordered Eastwood Ford light blue and it is excellent. I use a cottage cheese container to shake /swirl my bullets in. Toaster oven to cook the powder coating. I place bullets on the steel tray for the toaster oven on their bases and I have parchment paper on the tray to keep bullets from sticking. Non stick aluminum foil or regular foil will produce stuck bullets. Wax paper is a no go also. Powder coating is super easy. [/QUOTE]
