The Difference Between Powder and Liquid Coating is…
Powder coating and liquid coating are similar services, but they are not the same thing. Powder coating is a dry powder that sticks to metal surfaces and protects it from deteriorating. Liquid coating also protects metals surfaces, except this is more of a paint-like substance.
The Best Coating is…
Both powder coating and liquid coating protect metal surfaces. However, they have a few differences. Liquid coating is most often used for Automotive, Motorsports and Transportation. Liquid coating is also a much thinner layer. Powder coating is extremely durable. So, powder coating is recommended for metals that are exposed to harsh elements.
The Powder Coating Process is…
Before powder coating takes place, the metal materials must be thoroughly cleaned. This is usually when media blasting occurs. Media blasting cleans the metal so there are no traces of rust or corrosion. After the material is cleaned, the powder coating is sprayed onto the surface. The final step is to melt the powder down so it sticks to the machinery and protects the surface.
The Truth About Powder Coating is…
Yes, powder coating is safe if it is applied within the EPA guidelines. Powder coating has little, if any, volatile organic compounds. Excess powder coating can also be recycled creating minimal waste after application.
