Powder coating is an advanced method of applying a decorative and protective finish to a wide range of materials and products that are used by both industries and consumers.  The powder used for the process is a mixture of finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which is sprayed onto a surface to be coated.  The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded surfaces until heated and fused into a smooth coating in a curing oven.  The result is a uniform, durable, high-quality, and attractive finish. Powder coating is the fastest-growing finishing technology in North America, representing over 20% (and quickly growing!) of all industrial finishing applications.

Facts About Powder Coating...
 
Powder coating is a completely dry finishing process used on a wide range of materials and products.  Finely ground particles of pigment and resin are electro statically charged and sprayed onto products to be coated.  The parts to be coated are electrically grounded so the charged particles adhere to them until melted and fused into a solid coating in a curing oven.
 
Unlike liquid paint, no solvents are used, so only negligible amounts of VOCs, if any, are released into the air.  Unused or over sprayed powder can be recovered, so any waste is minimal and can be disposed of easily and safely.  The powder coating process is environmentally friendly and virtually pollution-free.  Thousands of different kinds of parts and products are now powder coated.

What are the advantages of Powder Coating?


More Durable - Powder coating gives consumers, businesses, and industry one of the most economical, longest-lasting, and most color-durable quality finishes available.


Powder coated surfaces are more resistant to chipping, scratching, fading and wearing than other finishes.  Color selection is virtually unlimited with high and low gloss, metallic, and clear finishes available.  And colors stay bright and vibrant longer.  Texture selections range from smooth surfaces to a wrinkled or matte finish, hammertones and rough textures designed for hiding surface imperfections.

 

It Looks Like Paint But It Acts Like Armor - It's tough.  It looks great. And it lasts a long, long time.  Powder coating is a superior finish that is found on hundreds of products you come in contact with each day.  It makes products durable, attractive, and scratch-resistant, too.


 

What kinds of materials can be powder coated? - Any objects made from metal (aluminum, steel, brass, copper, bronze, titanium, magnesium, etc.) can be powder coated.  All of these metals, weather sand, die, investment casting, extruded, forged and of course billet metals, can be powder coated.  Low density cast parts may require additional handling and possibly surface restoration by the experienced technicians at Ready Powder Coating.


 

What are some of the specific items that can be powder coated?

Some of the items that we powder coat include: patio and indoor furniture, decorative architectural pieces, car, boat, plane, bicycle and motorcycle parts (including chassis, frames and exhaust systems), wrought iron gates and fencing, birdcages, wheels, plumbing and lighting fixtures, railings, hand rails, metal cabinetry (i.e. medicine cabinets, etc), appliances (front and side panels of ranges and refrigerators, washer tops and lids, dryer drums, air conditioner cabinets, water heaters, dishwasher racks, cavities of microwave ovens), and more!

 

What kinds of finishes are available with powder coating? - With powder coating, color selection is virtually unlimited with high and low gloss, metallic, and clear finishes available.  Colors stay bright and vibrant longer. Texture selections range from smooth surfaces to a wrinkled or matte finish, and rough textures designed for hiding surface imperfections are also available.


Standard coatings commonly used include fluorescent, metallic, textured, hammertone, wrinkle, candy color/transparents, and of course all old world standard color finishes.  All of these are available in flat, matte, semi and high gloss.


If you’re looking for something different, we are now applying Reflectra, a chrome look-alike powder coating!  Reflectra is not as reflective as real chrome; however, it is still very bright.  The look is similar to satin polished aluminum.  We also apply coatings that are electro statically dissipative (ESD), electrically conductive, voltage insulating and phosphorescent (glow in the dark!!).
