What is powdercoating?
Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing dry powder. Unlike wet paint which is an evaporating solvent and is applied via a spray gun, powder coating is applied electrostatically and then cured under heat. It creates a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder coating is used to coat a variety of metals such as alloy wheels, bike/motorbike frames and parts, household items and appliances, the list is endless…
