Powder coating is a method of painting metals, usually aluminium or steel, by means of electrostatically coating the surface with dry powder and then curing (typically with heat).
Powder coating creates a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint making it ideal for situations where durability is desired.
Our large powder coating oven can service large jobs up to 2150mm × 2500mm × 8000mm but can service jobs even larger upon consultation.
Our powder coating plant is based in Longford, Tasmania making it easy for us to service the Launceston area and Northern Tasmania.
Our large powder coating oven can service large jobs up to 2150mm × 2500mm × 8000mm but can service jobs even larger upon consultation.
With over 150 colours immediately in stock and many more to choose from, we have a colour for every job.
Our powder coating service is perfect for car wheels/rims. Make your old wheels look like new or personalise your new wheels with our large range of colours.
You should ensure your wheels are as clean as possible before bringing them to us, or we may have to clean them for a fee.
For the best possible result, we suggest starting from a fresh metal surface. You may be required to have the wheel sandblasted* before being powder coated.
* We do not offer sandblasting services at this time. If sandblasting is required, we can make other business recommendations to you.
If required, we prepare the metal surface by sandblasting, sanding or both.
Aluminium products are dipped in an acid based immersion cleaner and chromate conversion coating to remove impurities and improve adhesion.
The product is then electrostatically coated in colour powder.
The colour powder is then cured onto the product by firing in our large powder coating oven at approx. 200°c.
