We Offer Powder Coating

Hobby Restorations
So, what’s the difference between liquid coating and powder coating? Well, powder coatings are used to restore factory settings to metal objects. Here at Protective Coatings Newcastle, we want to ensure the longevity for a range of your metal items, from metal furniture frames to car and bicycle parts!
The process for powder coating is a little more complex than liquid paint. We use an electrostatic gun to spray powder particles onto the metal’s surface. As the powder coating is positively charged, the powder adheres to the grounded object. Next, it is heated in an oven where the powder melts and cures, forming a protective, glossy finish.

The Perks of Powder
The raw ingredients in powder coatings vary drastically from what is used in liquid finishes. Although we ensure all products use as few toxins as possible, powder coatings are virtually free of volatile organic compounds! This means they are better for the environment than liquid coatings.
Overall, powder coatings offer a more durable finish than liquid paints, as powder provides greater resistance to impact, moisture, chemicals, ultraviolet light and extreme weather conditions. It also reduces the risk of scratching, chipping, abrasions, corrosion, fading and other daily forms of wear-and-tear!
Powder coatings, if well maintained, can last years – up to 20! This also helps your metal item retain its colour and vibrancy due to the bonding particles. Lastly, the process of powder coating is more cost-effective, taking less time and using less labour.
