Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry
powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder
coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the
binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is
typically applied
electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form
a "skin". The powder may be a thermoplastic or a thermoset polymer. It is
usually
used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder
coating is mainly used for coating of metals, such as "whiteware", aluminium
extrusions, and automobile and bicycle parts. Newer technologies allow other
materials, such as MDF (medium-density fibreboard), to be powder coated
using different methods.

Powder coatings emit zero or near zero volatile organic compounds (VOC).
Powder coating produce less hazardous waste than conventional liquid coatings.

Powder coatings can produce much thicker coatings than conventional liquid
coatings without running or sagging.
Powder coated items generally have fewer appearance differences between
horizontally coated surfaces and vertically coated surfaces than liquid
coated items.
A wide range of specialty effects is easily accomplished which would be
impossible to achieve with other coating processes.
We at Liquid Powder Coats have mastered the powder coating process and
pushed it beyond its limits.
Not only can we do traditional powder coating but we can also create colors
by mixing colors, Make designs as in graphics, letters, logos, laser
engraving, airbrush art work, hydrographics all within the powder itself! The possibilities are
endless. Let us know what we can do for your custom one off project.
