Powder Coating
What does this new service mean to you? Faster turnaround
time!
PWS has invested in new equipment and
extensive training to add on powder coat painting to the in-shop
services menu. Full wheel reconditioning will now go through a complete
cleaning, powder coating and baking process.
With normal paint systems the drying process
can take several hours before tires could be safely mounted on the fresh
surface. With powder coating the surface is baked to a hard finish in a
matter of minutes. This allows us to re-mount the tire as soon as the
product is cooled.
In addition to the new powder coating
equipment we have invested in cleaning and blasting systems to expedite
the entire process of wheel refinishing. Our goal is to get your wheels
back on your car as soon as possible with the most durable finish in the
industry.
Custom Powder Coating
PWS is happy to work with customers
that are interested in custom work on items other than wheel rims.
We will be
able to coat any metal items that are able to fit in our 8'x8'x10' booth
and oven. Items must be stripped of anything that is not metal or that
can't withstand the 400* temperature needed for curing the powder (such
as plastics and rubber). Items also should not reach a temperature over
400* during their everyday use once they have been coated.
Please send us an
email with your custom inquiry. Include photos and dimensions if
possible.
