Automotive Powder Coating Provides Enhanced Vehicle Protection and Beauty
Not long ago, coating in the automotive industry involved liquids that created waste and were harmful to the environment. But not only that, but they also were difficult to use to coat unusual shapes and couldn’t stand up to the high heat of the engine compartment. That’s why powder coating is the better solution for automotive coatings. It’s cost-effective, solvent-free, produces less waste, and provides the high-quality, corrosion, and beautiful finish car owners want.

How Does the Automotive Industry Use Powder Coating?
Automotive powder coatings began in the early 1970s when thin-film epoxy powders were used on coil springs. These powders provided corrosion protection to the springs while allowing for flexibility and the ability to withstand high heat. After the success of the springs, the automotive industry applied the powder coating process to more automotive parts, such as stamped steel brackets, tubing, engine blocks, and cylinder heads.
In the 1980s, clear powder coating was used on cast aluminum wheels to replace the previously used dangerous solvent-based protective clear coat. Today, automotive coatings using powder are found throughout the interior and exterior of the car. The high-heat-resistant powder is perfect for engine blocks, intake manifolds, window trims, door handles, and much more. Cars can have both automotive OEM coatings and aftermarket coatings.
No Dripping or Running
Liquid coating systems tend to drip and run when sprayed onto a metal substrate. But automotive powder coating doesn’t. It provides a uniform, high-quality finish free from steaks, drips, and runs. You just can’t beat the quality of finish that powder coating provides the automotive industry.
Better Corrosion Protection
Powder-coating car parts provides better overall corrosion protection than liquid paints. It goes on thicker than liquids, providing better edge protection. And because it can coat even the most complex shapes, automotive powder coating produces fewer defects than liquid-based coatings.
Extends Showroom Quality
Clear automotive OEM coatings protect the car’s finish from the elements. Rain, snow, sleet, UV rays, mud, dirt, and other road debris, are no match for the durable finish provided by powder coating. By choosing a clearcoat to finish the car, you can extend the showroom quality of the piece.
Better for the Environment
Unlike conventional liquid coatings that can emit volatile organic compounds (VOC) and cause damage to the environment and human health, powder coating is solvent-free. It doesn’t release harmful emissions, and overspray is reusable, so the powder coating process produces less waste.
