About Us
We are a small manufacturer of beach wheelchairs that are made of aluminum and need powder coating. Over the years, we’ve experienced the frustrations of dealing with local powder coating shops – the small guys are too small, and the larger shops are too busy to give our business the attention it deserves. We were often treated as second-class citizens, faced constant rate increases, or had to wait indefinitely while being backlisted.
That’s why we decided to set up our own shop – to break the mold.
Our Mission
At Superior Powder Coating, we specialize in quality powder coating with superior customer service and fast turnaround times. While not the largest, our facility accommodates items up to 8x5x7 feet.
Introduction to Powder Coating
Powder coating, a modern, eco-friendly finish, is popular for its durability, efficiency, and aesthetics. It applies dry powder to metal, curing under heat for a solvent-free, protective layer.
The Powder Coating Process
Surface Preparation
Clean and prep metal surfaces by stripping old paint, where needed, and sandblasting for superior powder adhesion. Old parts get degreased and power washed.
Application of Powder
After surface preparation, powder coating starts with an electrostatic spray gun. Charged powder particles adhere uniformly to grounded metal, covering intricate shapes effectively.
Curing
Once coated, the part enters a curing oven at 350-400°F (175-200°C). Heat melts and bonds the powder, forming a durable finish in 10-20 minutes.
Cooling and Inspection
After curing, the coated part cools to room temperature, solidifying the durable finish. It undergoes rigorous inspection for quality and uniformity before final approval.
Benefits of Powder Coating
Durability and Protection
Powder coating provides outstanding protection against chipping, scratching, and fading. Its robust layer shields metal from corrosion, moisture, chemicals, and UV radiation, significantly prolonging product lifespan.
Eco-Friendly Process
Powder coating is eco-friendly with no solvents and minimal volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. It minimizes environmental impact by enabling the collection and reuse of overspray powder, reducing waste.
Aesthetic Versatility
Powder coating offers a diverse array of colors, textures, and finishes, ensuring creative flexibility. Whether glossy, matte, metallic, or textured, it consistently achieves desired aesthetics for both functional and decorative applications.
Cost-Effectiveness
Despite higher initial setup costs compared to traditional painting, powder coating proves economical over time. Its durability reduces the need for frequent maintenance and repairs, while efficient material use and minimal waste contribute to overall savings.
