The Powder Coat Los Angeles Refinishing Companies Can Provide To Your Business

By Sharron Cantu


When manufacturing any product, you need it to have a favorable appearance. The surface must be as flawless as possible. Painting or staining a wood cabinet is one thing that will bring out the beauty in the piece, however, for metal surfaces something else is needed. Many companies who offer products for sale, such as metal screen doors, computer cases and other metal items use the powder coat Los Angeles refinishing firms offer.

When looking at most, if not all, of the many house ware to electronic items you see, you will notice they are powder coated. This process creates a much more durable finish than paint and it does not have the tell tale streaks that painting can produce. Having a nice, smooth surface is paramount when promoting a quality product with your name on it.

This durable finish is something all people want when they purchase a product in the markets of today. They want to know that the items they buy can with stand most of the abuse they give it and stand up to normal wear and tear. If it looks like it needs to be repainted after just a few days, weeks or even months, they will move on to something else.

As you look into the coating you want for your products, a paint booth is more expensive than having this coating done for you by a Los Angeles, CA firm. They will usually pick up all of the products you need coated and take care of all of it from there. They can schedule a particular day of the week or just as you call them.

That tour you take through their shop will be an interesting one. You will see that they do have your best interest at heart as they ensure the pieces are cleaned properly. Many baths of cleansers and other chemicals may have to be used to ensure they are clean enough to hold the coating that will be applied. They have already been hung on hooks and will continue in this fashion through the rest of the process.

The process is to attach a clip, attached to a positive electrical charge. This will attract the powder when it is applied to the piece. This powder is composed of polymers that resemble enamel, along with color pigments that you have selected for this piece. It is a finely ground powder that is applied through the use of a spray nozzle.

The purpose of the electrical charge is to ensure the powder adheres to the surface until it undergoes the next step. At this point, this formulation can be rubbed or abraded off. The electrical charge, if the clip stays attached, will hold the powder on all parts of the piece while moving along he process.

The process is finished by these hooked items being moved into a furnace. This allows the metal and the powder to heat up. The polymers adhere to themselves and to the metal in this way and becomes part of the metal item. This professional company will them return all of the items to you for final assembly and appreciation by your customers.
