Will the adhesive hold up to the baking at 500 degrees Click to expand... No, the adhesive releases at about 300 degrees. The aluminum will also lose its temper (where it gets most of it's strength from) at the same 300 degrees. I would not recommend powder coating for any bonded parts or aluminum period.
