How Does PPC’s Electrostatic Powder Coating’s Process Work?
Pretreatment
Performance powder coating starts by chemically, or mechanically, removing the oils and greases from the substrate. All parts go through a minimum five-stage chemical pretreatment process where an Iron Phosphate Conversion Coating is applied for steel, or a Non Chrome-chromate for aluminum parts. Because corrosion is any metal’s worst enemy, Pacific Powder Coating takes no short cuts in insuring this first step is done correctly, as it is the basis for a
impenetrable protective coating for corrosion control.
Application
Electrostatic powder coating gets its name because the paint particles are forced by compressed air through a gun that gives the particles a uniform positive charge. The charge helps these paint particles spread evenly on the target piece, which has been grounded to give it a negative charge. Opposite charges attract, and voila! The paint sticks to the target, dispersed evenly.
Curing
The powder-coated piece is baked in our large capacity ovens, causing the powder to melt and flow evenly into a resilient protective barrier. In a short period, the part is cured and ready to be shipped.
