The powder used for the powder-coating process is a mixture of finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which is sprayed with a spray gun that electrostatically charges the powder. The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded part until heated and fused into a smooth coating in a curing oven.

Powder coating is significantly more durable than painting. It is extremely resistant to chips, abrasion, heat up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, fuel and a variety of chemicals. It is up to 10 times more durable than paint. No more runs or drips that you would get when using traditional paint.

Powder coating is available in virtually unlimited colors and textures, many of which are in stock. Other colors can be ordered.

Because the product is cured in the oven at 400 – 500 degrees Fahrenheit up to 20 minutes, any material that can not withstand this temperature must be removed. Examples of items that cannot be powder coated are rubber, plastic, gaskets, foam insulation, bushings, as well as a few others.

POWDER COATING IS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY – no solvents or hazardous material used.
