Benefits of Powder Coating vs. Wet Paint


by jwksales | Metal Finishing

Metal finishing is one of the most important aspects of the fabrication process for a metal part or product. By finishing a product with a protective outer layer, such as a powder coating, you can protect both the aesthetics and longevity of your metal component.

The metal finishing process typically involves one of two types of finishing: wet paint or powder coating. While traditional painting techniques offer some protection, most metals benefit greatly from the powder coating process because of the thermal bonding that takes place during curing. There is a heated rubberized substance in powder coating that creates a finish with a stronger bond with the metal, helping better protect the surface. Additionally, when utilizing powder coating in the metal finishing process, you are using a thicker layer of protection versus conventional painted finishes, helping to make the metal piece more resistant to chipping, scratching, corrosion, rust, and other wear.
