What is Powder Coating?

Powder coating gives consumers, businesses, and industries the most economical, long-lasting and colour durable quality finish available on virtually any type of metal. Powder-coated surfaces are more resistant to chipping, scratching, and other wear than other finishes.

Why not just use wet paint?

Powder coating provides better performance than wet paint because of the thermal bonding it undergoes during curing, and because it can be applied in much thicker layers. In addition to its physical toughness, powder coating provides superior colour retention.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does powder coating last?

Powder Coating lasts for 15-20 years when maintained properly. Its resistance to weather, corrosion and chemicals makes for a more durable finish than paint or other liquid coatings.

Clean your powder coated surface every 3-6 months by removing any loose deposits with a wet sponge, then use a soft, non-abrasive brush or cloth to remove dust, salt and other deposits and then rinse off with clean, fresh water.

Don’t use any strong solvents, especially anything that recommends the use of gloves as this is an indication that the detergent is too harsh for cleaning.

Can you powder coat over paint?

Powder coating works best on the original metal surface so we recommend sandblasting first.

How does powder coating actually work?

Unlike a regular paint process, powder coating relies on an electric charge to ensure the powder sticks to a surface, rather than any kind of adhesive. We use a specially designed spray gun which ionizes the powder as it’s being applied, allowing it to naturally stick to the nearest surface.

After the product has been coated, it is baked at around 180 to 200 degrees Celsius for 15-20 minutes, depending on the metal thickness.
