When an electrostatically charged mixture of powdered plastic resin and additives is heat cured on a surface, the resulting layer is one of the most durable plastic coatings available, lasting up to 20 years or more. These strongly bonded coatings are easily able to resist weather, chemicals, corrosion, while providing benefits of sound and vibration dampening, and electrical insulating qualities, all with minimal care. The key to ensuring the highest durability of these coatings is proper surface preparation and ensuring appropriate care.
While powder coatings are naturally extremely durable due to the superior bond between the paint and substrate, this excellent durability can be improved with proper surface preparation. Steps to surface preparation can include cleaning substrates with acids or solvents and shot blasting to remove surface debris, rust, and scale. Pretreatments such as etching or phosphating and applying a coat of primer can also be beneficial by providing the best possible surface for the powder coating to adhere to.
Inadequate surface preparation, poor maintenance, and certain environmental exposures can diminish the durability of even these long-lived coatings. Factors contributing to a degraded coating can include:
