Definition:

Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. A process called electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) is used to achieve the application of the powder coating to a metal substrate. This application method uses a spray gun, which applies an electrostatic charge to the powder particles, which are then attracted to the grounded part. After application of the powder coating, the parts enter a curing oven where, with the addition of heat, the coating chemically reacts to produce long lasting, highly durable finishes.

Powder coating offers high value return on your finishing investment. Powders are available in a variety of colors, textures and chemistries to deliver cost effective coating performance for your products.

Our Process:

Cleaning: Techniques that include media blasting, acid wash

Pre-Treatment: During cleaning the product is pre treated with a phosphate coat to protect and insure the best quality for your product. Also TDJ provides anodizing and alodining through one of our certified venders.

Powder Coated Top Finish: TDJ uses Tiger Drylac and TCI powders to insure top quality finishes. A zinc primer is optional, dependent on customer request or product.

Packaging and Shipping: After powder coated finish, each individual part is inspected and packaged according to customer standards and our own quality standards.

Durability

Powder coating is a high-quality finish found on thousands of products you come in contact with each day. Powder coating protects the roughest, toughest machinery as well as the household items you depend on daily. It provides a more durable finish than liquid paints can offer, while still providing an attractive finish. Powder coated products are more resistant to diminished coating quality as a result of impact, moisture, chemicals, ultraviolet light, and other extreme weather conditions. In turn, this reduces the risk of scratches, chipping, abrasions, corrosion, fading, and other wear issues.

TDJ invests in the latest equipment and techniques to ensure the best quality for your individual project. We are highly focused on quality and exceeding our customers expectations.
