Nice Powder Coating Place up O'meara side....

[Monk BANzai]

Yall know me...always looking out for new options..... so I found this place up East (again)... Shift Performance that does Powdercoating. Having the rollcage for the Rover Project being done there...very competitive prices as opposed to the other "MAIN" vendor..... got some pics from their FB page...

Dwain and the guys up there really cool...and offers good advice as well.








of course like Panland and others.t.hey recommend proper pre-cleaning of your bits before you do it..but thier color variation is more than the other vendors..and what they dont have in stock they can order (takes about a week to order teh color you want)

jus sayn....

Shift Performance number is 689.9702

Is it possible to powder coat body trims made of plastic?

[Dragsta]

shweeet

Is it possible to powder coat body trims made of plastic?

trims like kick panels and such...??? i would think it is possible. all thats needed is a special binder resin or polymer to stick to the plastic and the power coating can be adhered to that....

i'm thinking in terms of how car bumpers are painted - they're not metal but they are painted in much less the same way....

i stand to be corrected - i'm NOT a painter...

Plastic can't really be powder coated..traditional powder coating requires that the material be able to hold a strong electrostatic charge and them be baked at high temps to cure.. so plastic isn't a good choice

not questioning yuh knowledge....but why do they sandblast it before the powercoat process? is it to give the surface a bit of adhesive for the Charge?....

its basically to remove corrosion and imperfections ...the finish will only be as good as the raw material.
this might better explain the process
