FAQ’S
POWDER COATING
What is Powder Coating and how does it work?
Powder Coating is a free-flowing powder that is applied to metal parts using an electrostatic application. After the parts are coated, they are put in an oven where the powder melts, flows, and cures resulting in a coating that is resistant to most chemicals, weather, and is much more durable than solvent borne paints. We have over 6500 colors available with various textures, colors, metallics and gloss levels. Because of the amount of colors available, we offer free color swatches so there is no second guessing you made the right choice for your project.
What makes Powder Coating the best finish on the market today?
In comparison to conventional liquid based paints, powder coat is more resistant to scratching, chipping, and fading than any other finish available. Due to its exceptional durability and flexibility, car enthusiasts, metal fabricators, and manufacturers acknowledge that powder coat is an ideal finish for all applications where it is acceptable. Powder Coating is also an EPA friendly finish that does not require highly regulated liquid solvents necessary in liquid based paints.
What can be powder coated?
Any metal (steel, aluminum, copper, magnesium, etc) capable of conducting an electrical charge and withstanding 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Porcelain and wood can also be coated with different styles of application. We specialize in all automotive parts including valve covers, bumpers, intakes, motorcycle frames, bicycle frames, wheels, turbo housings, and more. If you have any questions debating on if your project can be coated feel free to contact us for a free estimate.

VINYL WRAPPING
WHAT IS VINYL WRAPPING AND WHAT CAN BE VINYL WRAPPED?
Vinyl wrapping is a process where a thin vinyl film is applied to the surface of a car, motorcycle, or any other object, to change its appearance or protect its original paint. The film can be made in different colors, finishes and textures to imitate a paint job or add a custom design. It is a popular alternative to traditional paint jobs as it is more cost-effective, can be easily changed and removed, and can also provide protection against scratches and other types of damage.
HIGH TEMP CERAMIC COATING
What is High Temperature Ceramic Coating?
High Temperature Ceramic coatings can be found on many components of your engine compartment and everywhere in between. High temperature ceramic coatings provide a unique blend of hardness, corrosion resistance and heat resistance without compromising the overall cosmetic appeal. Some formulations are stable up to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit and require only a room temperature air cure. Although there are not as many options available for colors in a high temp ceramic coating, there are still plenty of options available that can suit your needs.
