What is powder coating?

It is the electrostatic application of finely powdered pigments and resins to a surface which is then cured under heat. Powder coatings are environmentally safe since no solvents are used or released into the atmosphere.

Why use powder coating?

Powder coating produces an extremely hard and durable finish that is resistant to the cracking, peeling, scuffs, scrapes and impacts that damage ordinary paint. It is extremely resistant to abrasion, corrosion, chemical and weather damage.

What can be powder coated?

Steel, aluminum, and stainless steel parts are excellent substrates for powder coating to be applied

What size parts can be powder coated?

Parts of all shapes and sizes can be powder coated. The only constraint will be the size of the oven. We have the capability to powder coat parts as long as 24 foot. Please call for more details.

What colors are available?

There are thousands of colors to choose from. We have select colors in stock at our facility and we have the capability to receive customer specific powder coatings in 24-48 hours.

What are textured finishes?

These are non-smooth finishes used for aesthetic purposes or to hide surface imperfections. They can also be used on areas where extra grip or traction is required. These finishes come in a huge variety of colors.

What is Chem-Film?

Chemical Film (Chem-Film) coatings are gelatinous films which provide some sort of a barrier medium to retard corrosion on aluminum surfaces and enhance adhesion of subsequent coatings such as paints and primers. We offer clear or gold conversion that is electrically conductive; and provide some corrosion protection.

What can be Chem-Filmed?

At this time only Aluminum can be irridited.

What size parts can be Chem-Film?

Parts of all shapes and sizes can be Chem-Filmed. The only constraint will be the size of the bath. Please call for more details.

What types of Chem-Film are available?
MIL-C-5541
Class 1: Chemical conversion coatings are intended to provide corrosion prevention when left unpainted as well as to improve adhesion of paint finish systems on aluminum and aluminum alloys. Most often used for the interior surfaces. 
Class III: Chemical conversion coatings are intended for use as a corrosion preventative film for electrical and electronic applications where lower resistant contacts. The primary difference between a Class 1A and a Class 3 coating is thickness.
