What Exactly Is Powder Coating?
A powder coating is a type of dry finishing process that’s created by combining finely ground resins, pigments, and additives. Instead of using traditional wet paint, our team applies our powder electrostatically to your metal item. We cure it in our specialty oven to create an unbelievably durable finish, melting and bonding it until it’s smooth and friendly to the touch.
Our Sacramento powder coating looks incredible, but it’s also about long-lasting protection from rust, UV rays, scratches, and everyday wear and tear. Unlike liquid paints, powder coatings are thicker and more durable than standard paint and require less maintenance and touch-ups.
Why Choose Powder Coating Over Paint?
Regular paint has its place in the market, but it is not suitable for use on metal surfaces. It doesn’t hold up, fades easily, and chips and peels—especially in the weather. Our powder coating gives your items a vibrant, long-lasting finish that won’t rust or deteriorate, even on outdoor items.
Liquid paints also release harmful VOCs into the environment, whereas powder coatings are free of harsh chemicals and solvents. You also won’t experience drips, runs, or other issues. Instead, powder coatings go on seamlessly and are safe for you and the environment.
Blend Custom Color and Protection
If you want variety, Powder Craft offers over 5,000 colors, textures, and finishes to choose from, including classic, metallic, and vibrant options to bring your signature style to life. Our finishes are also created to endure California’s unique climate that can hold up to the blazing sun, sudden showers, humidity, and temperature swings without cracking, fading, or rusting.
Our Powder Coating Process
We’ve spent decades refining our process to get our craft just right. Here’s how we give your items the best finish possible:
Pyrolytic Cleaning Oven
Our process starts with a state-of-the-art burn-off oven that’s the only one of its kind in Northern California. No matter what kind of metal item you want to refinish, our ovens safely remove old coatings, oils, and contaminants. The ovens turn the old layers into ash without damaging the metal for a cleaner, smarter, and safer way to prep.
Media Blasting
After the burn-off process, the team at Powder Craft uses a specialized media blasting technique to clean and roughen the surface (as appropriate) to give your powder coating something to grip onto. It’s a similar concept to a fresh canvas ready for a coat of paint.
Washing and Outgassing
We put your metal items through a washing and outgassing process to clean them during a multi-stage process. Your items are then heated to remove any lingering gases that could interfere with your powder coating.
Primer Application
For outdoor or high-exposure items, the team at Powder Craft works to apply a strong epoxy primer layer that locks in rust and corrosion resistance and sets the foundation for a long-lasting topcoat.
Custom Coating and Curing
Once we apply the color during your Sacramento powder coating, we cure it in our oven to form a smooth and durable finish.
Final Inspection
We thoroughly inspect and go over your items to look for any imperfections before handing them back to you.
Where to Apply Powder Coatings
Our powder coating service is a popular choice for just about any metal item you want to protect and beautify. Here are just a few examples:
