Coated aluminum powder is a decorative, durable finish that is made by applying a colored powder to aluminum and then melting it to harden.

The coated aluminum powder is made of resin and pigment particles which are electrostatically charged and then sprayed onto the aluminum surface.

The charged particles are then heated to melt and then form a smooth coating.

Dry powder coating is a dry finishing process that is made by an electric charge.

The electric charge in dry powder coating causes a dry powder to fuse to the surface of the metal.

The dry powder coating is then baked in a curing oven in order to get a smooth coating.

Dry powder coating is used to create a hard finish which is tougher and longer lasting than conventional paint.

Unlike liquid pain, the powder coating does not rely on a solvent to carry the pigment, which results in a thicker and more even coating.

The powder coating is charged with electricity which allows it to adhere strongly to the grounded surface that is being powder coating.

Once the powder coating is applied, the coated part is then heated in an oven to melt and fuse the powder particles to create a solid surface.

Powder coating is also known for it's excellent resistance to corrosion, scratches, and weathering, which makes it also suitable for outdoor applications.
