Powder Coating
What is Powder Coating?
Powder coating is a method of dry finishing a surface that utilizes a dy resin powder that's positively charged and applied utilizing an electrostatic spray. The powder then clings to the metal surface, which features the opposing charge, to create a highly-resistant coating. The surface is then heated to melt and bond the powder, completing the coating.
S&S Coatings LLC. offers powder coating services as they often work hand-in-hand with sandblasting. The blasting is done to clean and prep the metal surface, and we follow up with a perfect powder coating to decorate and protect the surface from future corrosion from the elements.
Benefits of Powder Coating
The major benefit of powder coating is that it provides one of the more durable and longer-lasting finishes to your surfaces. It provides a great, consistent look without the frailty of simple paint.
It's also a cost-effective solution as a set amount of powder is necessary to provide long-term results. Even powder that does not cling initially is collected again for re-use. Meanwhile, paint erodes quickly under certain elements, and requires frequent touch-ups to maintain.
It holds up well against physical contact, corrosion, and doesn't fade easily under ultraviolet light. It also comes in a wide variety of textures and colors to provide you with a thick, vibrant look to your surfaces.
