All-in-one system for spraying powder coat?

I have a few projects that I'd like to use powder coat on rather than paint and don't want to buy a separate powder coat spray system and an air compressor to run it. There are a million all-in-one airless systems for spraying paint (Wagner for instance), but I can't find any that do powder. Sears used to make one under the Craftsman name, but it's been out of production long enough now that you can't even find new guns anymore, it's all refurbs of questionable reliability and no access to replacement parts.

Anyone aware of anything that can fit the bill? Something with interchangeable nozzles/canisters to handle both powder and paint would be great, but I'd settle for a kit that only did powder.

Check out Eastwood. They have a few different systems for powder. I just bring stuff to a local guy that fits me in with industrial orders, and can bake it.

Looked at those, they require a compressor.

Seems silly that there are like 1000 different all-in-one models for paint and none for powder. If you had one you could own 100% of the market.

I have the original eastwood gun, it requires very little air. I'd imagine the smallest compressors would do it. I saw a little 1 gal compressor for $55. Other question is how big are the parts and how do you plan to cure them?
