Bill. I believe the original was Deloro Stellite & in Canada, & Kennametal bought them out. Welding rod for hard surfacing was/is a common use. It may have been sprayed as well. Ron.

I saw that and figured as a WAG that maybe Stellite had been acquired by Deloro prior to the Kennemetal acquisition. I think that the dental implant video showed that powdered Stellite was applied by applying a charge to the metal posts sort of the same idea as powder coat painting.
