Powder Coating is a metal finishing technology to protect and/or provide color and/or texture to metal decorations, parts, and more.
Available in almost a limitless array of colors and textures, performance technological advances have made powder coating a far superior option to painting. A dry finishing process, over 15% of the total industrial finishing market utilizes powder coating on an array of products. The high-quality, durable finish allows for improved efficiencies, maximized production, and even environmental compliance.
The most common powder coating application process is environmentally friendly, cost effective, and provides maximum protection.
First, the metal item is pre-treated to prepare the surface for maximum adhesion. Then, the powder polymer resin is combined with a variety of ...
Prior to powder coating, all items must be pre-treated to strip away existing corrosion or existing coating, as well as to clean, degrease, and outgas the bare metal. The result is a surface finish that is primed to receive the powder coating.
We use chemical stripping and/or sandblasting ...
Powder coating is commonly used as a higher quality alternative to traditional wet paints, including spray paint. It offers a more durable finish than paint, while resisting corrosion, scratches, chipping, and the impact of moisture, chemicals, extreme weather, and ultraviolet life. And, it creates a highly decorative finish as well as protecting tough machinery and machine ...

Quality & Reliability
Powder coating is divided into three categories: thermoset, thermoplastic, and UV curable. While these categories differ in application and execution, they all have this in common: a powder is applied to a surface, which hardens under specific conditions. This creates an even, corrosion-resistant surface coat.
The three main types are,
- Thermoset
-Thermoplastic
- UV Curable Coatings
At Victory Fab & Powder Coat, we use all three powder types, depending on what the best...
You may be wondering why you need powder coating at all when you can just paint your pieces, but many characteristics of powder coat make it a superior alternative to wet spray paint, including:
Hardness
Also, powder coat is physically harder than wet paint, which makes it more scratch and chip resistant with a higher durability rate.
Adhesion
Powder coat also has a higher adhesion rate than spray paint, partially due to the significant pretreatment. Increased adhesion also means increased resistance to chipping and corrosion
Dry Film Thickness
Powder coat is applied at a thickness of 2-10 mil, determined by the need. (Functional finishes are usually thicker than decorative finishes.) This is 4 to 10 times thicker than the 0.5-1 mil traditional application of liquid spray paint.
Corrosion Resistance
Properly applied powder coat far exceeds traditional spray paint's ability to prevent corrosion. Test results show that the lower application thickness for decorative use powder coated items do not show signs of corrosion even after going through salt spray tests for more than 1000 hours - and, thicker functional coatings are even more corrosion resistant.
Flexibility
Powder coat is actually a flexible products, with published test results showing 100-800% elongations before failing! This flexibility also contributes to the resistance to cracking or flaking when the part is manipulated.
Environmental Impact
It's common knowledge that wet paint is flammable, but many people don't know it's also carcinogenic (can cause cancer), and contains Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). On the contrary, powder coat is environmentally friendly, as the powder is not a significant health, fire, or environmental hazard. Additionally, the powder is applied when it's dry using an electrostatic bonding process that that allows ~90% of the powder to adhere to the item - and, the remainder falls to the ground to be collected and disposed of instead of going into the atmosphere. Thus, powder coating has a minimal amount of waste. Spray painting efficiency, however, is often below 50% and the paint that doesn't adhere goes into the air or settles onto nearby objects, unable to be reused.
