How it works

Professional Preparation. Consistent Results.

From large fabricated assemblies and production runs to architectural components and specialty parts, every project follows a proven process for preparation, coating, curing and final inspection.

Powder coating is only as good as the prep underneath it. That's why every job, from a single fabricated assembly to a full production run, goes through the same eight steps.

Powder only bonds well to clean, bare metal, so almost every part goes through our 20' × 10' × 10' in-house blast booth first. Abrasive media strips rust, old paint, powder and scale down to the substrate and leaves a uniform surface profile.

That profile is what gives the new coating something to grip. Skipping this step is the number one reason coatings from other shops peel.

·  20' × 10' × 10' in-house blast booth

·  Long and oversized parts blasted in one piece

·  Removes rust, paint and old powder

·  Uniform anchor profile for adhesion

·  Sandblast-only service also available

Anything that shouldn't get coated gets protected. High-temperature tape and silicone plugs go over threads, bearing seats, ground contacts, bolt holes and mating surfaces so hardware still fits and tolerances hold after coating.

On commercial and industrial parts we work from your drawings or mark-ups, and flag anything unclear before the part is coated.

·  High-temp masking tape and plugs

·  Threads and bearing seats protected

·  Two-tone and custom masking available

·  Follows customer drawings

In the spray booth, dry powder is given an electrostatic charge and sprayed onto the grounded part. The charge pulls powder evenly into edges, corners and recesses that liquid paint would miss or run on, and it wraps around the back of tubing and mesh.

There are no solvents and no VOCs, and any overspray is collected and recycled rather than released.

·  Electrostatic, even coverage

·  Thousands of colors, glosses and textures

·  No solvents or VOCs

·  Overspray captured and reused

07 · Oven Curing

Coated parts go straight into our 20' × 10' × 10' industrial curing oven, where the powder melts, flows and cross-links into a single continuous layer. Long beams, frames and full production racks cure in one piece, in one cycle.

Once cured, the finish is far harder and more chip-, scratch- and corrosion-resistant than liquid paint.

·  One-piece cure for long parts

·  Full production racks in a single cycle

·  Heat-cured for a hard, uniform film

·  Chip, scratch and corrosion resistant

Our truck collects parts from your shop or job site and brings them back finished. For large fabrications, repeat production orders and anything too heavy or awkward to move yourself, we schedule pickup and delivery around your project.
