What is powder coating?
Powder coating is a finishing process where a dry powder is applied to a surface and then cured under heat to create a durable, high-quality finish. Unlike traditional liquid coatings, powder coatings do not require solvents and are applied electrostatically to ensure a smooth, even coat. The powder is then baked at high temperatures to form a hard, protective layer. Powder coating is known for its durability, resistance to corrosion, and vibrant color options.
