What even is powder coating? Why should I use this finish for my project? These are common questions that you may be asking yourself. So here is a basic run down of powder coating. It is the process of 3 main steps. You must first properly prep all surfaces to ensure proper adhesion. Next is the application of electrically charged powder onto a metal surface. Your substrate is then put in a "cure" oven, to cure the powder to the desired temperature for a specific duration.

Why should you consider using powder coating vs paint? You should use powder coating as your finish of choice for a variety of reasons. First, powder coating offers a much more durable and scratch resistant finish. It is known to be superior when used outdoors and in harsh environments, due to the fact that powder coating will have no problem withstanding it for years to come.

When you choose powder coating, you will also be ensuring that your project will be protected from rust, oxidation, impacts, etc. This is done by applying primer (optional) under your topcoat color of choice. Primer is basically a base coat that provides a moisture barrier for your project, ensuring water does not permeate the surface.

Powder coating is also widely loved because of the wide variety of appearance choices available. There are thousands of options of color, texture, and finish to choose from. Powder is specifically ordered for your project, meaning you can pick any color that fits your vision without being limited to stock options.

Finally, powder coating is known for its longevity. This means that once you get it powder coated, it will last for years to come, eliminating the need for frequent touch-ups and saving you significant costs over time. So, reach out to us today for a quote!
