Coatings are essential to protecting metal components and objects from becoming damaged or corroded. Metal parts are often susceptible to corrosion that comes in the form of chemical exposure, electrical contact, localized corrosion or stress cracking. Luckily, there are a number of ways to protect these parts through metal coating methods like spraying, sputtering and […]
Read MoreSandblasting, or abrasive blasting, uses a powered machine like an air compressor to spray abrasive particles via high pressure to coat a surface. As you might expect, the surface is blasted with sand particles. As these particles hit the surface, they form a smoother texture. Before you hire sandblasting services, let’s take a closer look […]
Read MoreAre you familiar with powder coating? It’s a special finish for metal objects that offers a lot of protective power. A special powder is applied to a metal surface when the object is dry, then it’s heated to form a strong, durable coating that can protect the object from the elements, wear and tear and […]
Read MoreWhen you have metal items—be they lawn furniture, tools or other equipment—there’s only so much you can do to prevent wear and tear while the surface is unprotected. Weather, heat, friction and other factors can all do a number on your metal components. Powder coating is often the right answer. There are dozens of uses […]
Read MorePowder coating is a finishing or painting process typically used on metals. A dry powder is electrostatically charged and sprayed onto the desired surface, usually a metal, which is grounded. The charged powder particles are drawn to the grounded metal surface, and the process is completed by heating the metal object, causing the powder molecules […]
