Powder Coating is common in uses for consumable goods such as
household items, appliances, and automotive exteriors. The end
result of Powder Coating provides an extremely smooth and attractive
surface, which makes the process ideal for the consumer market.
In this coating method, a powder material is applied to a surface,
and then heated so that it melts and flows to form a smooth, even
film. The process involves a number of steps, from the blasting/stripping
and pretreatment of the surface to the application and curing
of the powder coating.
In addition to the visual appeal of Powder Coating, the end result
provides a durable finish that is resistant to wear, fading, and
corrosion.
