Epoxy polyester powder coat is a specific kind of coating that offers protection to your objects and surfaces. This type of epoxy powder paint is made from a combination of both epoxy and polyester resin. The coatings are used primarily by manufactures for many objects such as furniture, home products and bike frames. This type of coating is popular with customers because it provides a very durable surface finish. The tough, durable and smooth type of finish obtained can be achieved by applying and curing the coating in an oven.
Common Usage Issues with Epoxy Polyester Powder Coating and How to Avoid Them
Bubbles or blisters on the powder coating surface is another common problem. This issue occurs when the metal is not heated properly before applying the coating. Temperature regulations for metal and powder must be strictly followed. Low metal temperature will affect powder melting and adherence process. The final issue is color fading that occurs when the product is left in direct sunlight for prolonged periods. To ensure that the colors remain bright, the coated items should be kept in shades or apply a clear coat to protect them from UV radiation.
