With all respect, I must comment on this statement.
Many powdercoaters don't know what they're doing-
regardless of how many years they've been in business.
I just took some parts to be powdercoated by someone who had been in business for over 20 years. When I dropped off my parts he was powdercoating a fence; after my job he was doing some rails.
The powdercoating was done improperly even though I spent a half hour explaining what to mask and what powder coat. After returning the part to me (three weeks late) I noticed that he hadn't powdercoated the part evenly or completely. It looked like crap.
That a powdercoater claims to have a lot of experience could simply mean that he/she has a lot of experience in doing poor work.
