Powder Coating for CNC & Molded Parts

Powder coating sprays dry powder that bakes into a tough, colorful, chip-resistant skin.

  • Thick, durable, and colorful finish.
  • Resists chips, scratches, and rust.

What it is

What Is Powder Coating?

Powder coating uses electrostatically charged dry powder. The powder sticks to the grounded part, then a bake melts it into a smooth, solid film. It is thicker and tougher than liquid paint and contains no solvents.

We offer a wide color range and can match your sample or RAL code.

How it works

How Powder Coating Works

Pre-treat & clean

We degrease and sometimes phosphate the part.

Electrostatic spray

Charged powder clings evenly to the part.

Cure in oven

Heat melts and bonds the powder into a film.

Inspect

We check thickness, color, and adhesion.

Film thickness is usually 40–120 µm, much thicker than liquid paint.

Why choose it

Benefits of Powder Coating

Tough & chip resistant

Handles impact and abrasion well.

Color variety

Matches RAL, Pantone, or samples.

Corrosion protection

Seals metal from moisture and salt.

Even coverage

Electrostatic spray coats uniformly.

No solvents

Environmentally cleaner than wet paint.
