    I have a roof basket that needs a new paint. I often hear powder-coating. Can anyone suggest how to do this? Or if this can easily be DIYed? Or suggest any shop that would do this for not so expensive price.

    Thanks.

    Powder coating is the technique of applying dry paint to a part. The final cured coating is the same as a 2-pack wet paint. In normal wet painting such as house paints, the solids are in suspension in a liquid carrier, which must evaporate before the solid paint coating is produced.

    In powder coating, the powdered paint may be applied by either of two techniques.

    1. The item is lowered into a fluidised bed of the powder, which may or may not be electrostatically charged, or
    2. The powdered paint is electrostatically charged and sprayed onto the part.

    The part is then placed in an oven and the powder particles melt and coalesce to form a continuous film.

    There are two main types of powder available to the surface finisher:

    1. Thermoplastic powders that will remelt when heated, and
    2. Thermosetting powders that will not remelt upon reheating.

    During the curing process (in the oven) a chemical cross-linking reaction is triggered at the curing temperature and it is this chemical reaction which gives the powder coating many of its desirable properties.




    Or suggest any shop that would do this for not so expensive price.

    How much na ang average price ng pagpapa-powder coat ngaun? Last check ko 2000 per 15 inch na mags. Ganun pa rin ba presyuhan ngayon?

    There's a factory across Mickey's Autosound, near South Supermarket here in Pasig that has a large powdercoating facility as well.

How to powder coat?
