- Application
This product was designed to be applied by electrostatic spray, on steel , galvanized steel, or aluminum. Most powders can be reclaimed, sieved and recycled, if proper housekeeping is maintained.
- Pre Treatment
The substrate pretreatment prior to powder coating is a critical factor in developing maximum corrosion resistance and maximizing the life time of the product.
C.R.S. (Iron phosphate) 2 to 5 stages depending upon soil level, and quality desired. C.R.S. (Zinc phosphate) 5 to 9 stages depending upon soil level, and quality desired. Galvanized steel (Zinc phosphate) 5 to 7 stages depending on soil level, and quality desired. Galvanized steel must be degassed at 5 degrees above cure temperature to minimize gassing.
Aluminum (Chromate) 5 stage system is normally needed. Aluminum (phosphate) 5 stage system is normally needed.
