Surface Finishing

Powder Coating Services

Electrostatically applied dry powder cured in an oven — thicker, more uniform coverage than wet paint, with excellent chip resistance and UV-stable color options for enclosures and industrial assemblies.

Process Overview

Color & Texture

Standard RAL colors, gloss, semi-gloss, and fine texture. Color matching available for brand-critical housings.

Surface Prep

Bead blast or phosphate pre-treatment for adhesion. Masking of threads, bores, and grounding pads.

Combined Quote

Frequently Asked Questions

Powder coat vs wet paint?

Powder coat is thicker, more durable, and has no VOC solvents. Wet paint suits very thin films or special chemistries — we advise per your drawing.

Can you powder coat aluminum parts?

Yes — typically after degrease and chromate or blast prep. Specify coating system and we confirm adhesion requirements.

Will coating fill sharp corners?

Electrostatic wrap helps, but inside corners may be thinner. We review geometry in DFM and may recommend radii for even coverage.
