Better Than Paint - Eastwood's Hotcoat Powdercoating System

Better Than Paint - Eastwood's Hotcoat powdercoating system revolutionized home workshops in 1997. By bringing an economical and easy to use powdercoating system into the garage, the DIY hobbyist automatically had another alternative to paint - an alternative that was more durable, shinier and easily lent itself to custom work.

In September of 1998, Eastwood received the Pennsylvania Governor's award for "Environmental Excellence" for the HotCoat Powder Coating System.

This product, developed exclusively by Eastwood, was recognized for its low environmental impact. HotCoat also received the Automotive Restoration Market Organization's "Best New Product" award for 1999.

Automotive Tools at Eastwood

In the fall of 1978, Curt Strohacker started a new business to serve a new market: the auto restoration and customization hobby. During high school, Curt worked in a service station, bought and sold innumerable vehicles, and learned some valuable lessons about restoration. When the auto restoration market took off in the 1970s, Curt realized that the right tools and techniques could help thousands of other restorers save time and money. The first Eastwood catalog featured eight black and white pages of metal finishing equipment. By the early 1980s, the continued success took the catalog mailing operation into a professional list house. It reached 5,000 names by 1981 and kept growing. In addition to catalog marketing, Eastwood sold its products directly at selected car shows.

Today, the Eastwood tool catalog is published monthly in a full-size format and is full of quality tools, cheap auto parts and accessories to buy online. In November of 1999, the company broke ground for a new state of the art facility north of Philadelphia in Pottstown, Pennsylvania. The company completely relocated to Pottstown in July of 2000 after an aggressive eight-month project.
