Powder
is a dry coating. Instead of being dissolved or suspended
in a liquid medium such as solvent or water, powder is applied
in a granular form. This material is finer than ground pepper
but coarser than flour and is applied directly to the surface
to be coated.
The
powder is created by blending the various components (binders,
resins, pigments, fillers and additives) and processing
them through an extruder into a continuous mass. This homogenous
mass is cooled and broken into small chips which are then
ground into the powder. Each powder particle contains the
necessary components for reforming into the finished coating.
After
the powder is applied to the railing system/component using
an electrostatic spray process, the railing system/component
passes through an oven. The sprayed powder melts into a
smooth film on the surface that quickly cures to provide
a durable finish.
Greco
Aluminum Railings powder coats all railings with a polyester
powder. The railings are pre-treated with a five stage process
to prevent chipping, peeling, and other deficiencies.
