What Is Powder Coating?

Powder coating is a cutting-edge finishing process that creates a tough, uniform, and long-lasting surface on metal parts.
Instead of using liquid paint, the coating is applied as a fine, dry powder that’s electrostatically charged and baked in a high-temperature oven.
The result? A durable finish that resists corrosion, chipping, and fading — ideal for Florida’s humidity, salt air, and year-round heat.

At Fort Myers Powder & Blasting LLC, we’ve perfected this process to ensure a flawless finish every time — whether we’re coating a set of rims, a custom gate, or an industrial machine frame.

Why Choose Powder Coating?

Durable & Long-Lasting
Powder coating is up to four times stronger than traditional paint. It bonds to the metal at a molecular level, making it highly resistant to scratches, rust, and weathering. Perfect for outdoor projects exposed to Florida’s sun and salt air.

Eco-Friendly Finish
Unlike liquid paints, powder coatings contain no harmful solvents or VOCs (volatile organic compounds). The process is clean, safe, and produces minimal waste — better for your workspace and the environment.

Endless Color & Texture Options
Choose from hundreds of RAL colors, textures, gloss levels, and finishes. From matte black industrial tones to metallic blues and high-gloss custom looks, we can match nearly any style or brand requirement.

Consistent & Professional Results
Every surface is carefully prepared through media blasting or sandblasting, removing old paint, rust, and imperfections. That ensures an even coat and perfect adhesion — no drips, no brush marks, just a smooth, flawless finish.

How Does Powder Coating Work?

1. Preparation & Cleaning
   The metal is cleaned and blasted to remove all contaminants, rust, or paint. This step ensures the powder properly adheres to the surface.

2. Electrostatic Application
   A specialized spray gun charges the powder particles, causing them to cling evenly to the grounded metal surface.

3. Curing Process
   The coated part is placed in an industrial oven where it’s baked at 350–400°F. This causes the powder to melt and flow into a smooth, solid layer.

4. Inspection & Quality Control
   Each piece is inspected for finish consistency, thickness, and color match to guarantee long-term performance and beauty.

Is Powder Coating Durable?

Absolutely. A properly prepped and cured powder coat can last 15–20 years or longer with minimal maintenance.
It’s resistant to rust, fading, UV damage, and chemicals — making it the preferred finish for everything from automotive, marine, architectural, and industrial applications to home décor and custom projects.
