What is Powder Coating?

The process uses powder resin bases, such as epoxy / polyester / polyurethane & acrylics, along with coloured pigments blended into a fine powder consistency.

The powders are then sprayed on metal products through a specially designed electrostatic powder coating spray gun via clean dry compressed air. Because of the electrostatic charge received from the powder coating gun, the powders are attracted to the metal products in a uniform consistency. The products are then transferred through a high temperature powder coating bake oven which transforms the powder to a liquid, then to a gel and finally to a cured state, forming a molecular fusion bond to the substrate.

Powder coating provides better coverage compared to liquid paints. For some complexly designed wheel rims, certain facets of the rim can be difficult to reach with liquid paints. With powder coating, however, due to the electrostatic method combined with the curing process, even the most difficult-to-reach parts of the rim get adequate coverage.

The results is a surface-to-coating bonding unlike any other a finish, both enhancing the beauty and increasing the durability of your products.

Getting your rims redone is something nice that you can do for yourself, but why not do something nice for the environment while you’re at it? Opting to use powder coating over liquid paints is better for the environment. Liquid paints contain volatile organic compounds that are harmful to the ozone, as well as to anyone who breathes them in. Plus, excess liquid paint is nearly impossible to capture and reuse. Powder coating, on the other hand, contains no dangerous VOCs and any excess powder can easily be recycled.

The Powder Coating Process

Arrival at our plant
  • Product goes through an initial quality inspection for irregularities caused by manufacturing or shipping
  • All non-conforming parts are immediately separated and brought to the attention of the customer
  • Product is then stored in designated areas to await scheduling
  • An internal quality form is created to record all production requirements, from colour, type of powder required, special packaging, inspection criteria and masking needs, if required
  • Repeat powder coated products get reunited with previously documentmentation
Cleaning
  • Product are passed through an extensive chemical cleaning system
  • Pre-treatment is a critical step which ensures a clean, phosphated and etched substrate for powder coating
  • After leaving the final rinse the product travels to a separate powder coating dry off oven.
  • Parts are then proceed through a cool down area to bring them back to room temperature
Powder Spray
  • After cool down to room temperature, the clean product passes into our enclosed powder coating area
  • The required powder is evenly sprayed by one of our trained technicians or with automatic reciprocators
  • If required additional touch-ups and will pass through a second powder application booth for further application and inspection.
Getting Baked
  • The product is transported through our powder coating infra-red preheat section, which is used to morph the powder into a liquid state
  • This allows to move large amounts of heated air to the powder coating convection bake oven to ensure we have a full even cure without removing powder from the substrate
  • The result is a beautiful, incredibly durable finish that's second to none
  • Product will, once again, be visually inspected as it moves along the conveyor and begins to return to room temperature
Return to Sender
  • Items are now allowed to cool to complete the powder coating process
  • Once cooled, each item is individually inspected and carefully re-packed in our customer's containers as per the visual aid instructions
