How powder coating is applied

The powder coating is applied to the object through an electrostatic gun. Compressed air runs through the powder coater pushing the powder through the gun where the electrode gives the powder a positive charge. The object being coated is earthed so the positive powder particles are attracted and then baked at high temperatures to allow a chemical change to form a complete coat.

The powder coating then sets to form a hard durable finish. Depending on environment powder coat can leave a life expectancy of up to 12 years decorative appearance and 15 years corrosion protection.
