-
Minimum Wastage
Apart from being environmentally friendly, powder coating also ensures minimal wastage as the powder adheres to the surface with an electromagnetic charge. Moreover, it's sprayed by a nozzle, using only the needed powder coating.
Powder Coating Applications in Architecture
Now that you're aware of the benefits of powder coating in architectural applications, it's time to find out which metals can be powder coated.
What should be remembered here is that powder coating is suitable for a wide range of products. In architecture, you can basically use powder coating on the interior and exterior of buildings.
So let's take a look at the metals used in architecture that are suitable for powder coating. Remember that all these metals need to go through pretreatment.
-
Aluminum
Aluminum is a lightweight metal commonly used in architecture and building designs. The problem with aluminum is that it is coated with oxide to make it resistant to rust. This coating has to be removed prior to powder coating to allow proper bonding of the powder to the surface. Rusty Lions can achieve this by blasting the surface to remove oxide and dirt before a powder coating job.
-
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel can be easily profiled so that the powder can stick to the surface effectively. Profiling can also be carried out by blasting.
-
Galvanized Steel
Galvanized steel is also used in architectural projects and is one of the most common metals that undergoes powder coating. Galvanized steel also contains an oxide layer like aluminum which must be removed before spraying commences.
