Transparent Powder Coating

DESCRIPTION

Transparent powder coating often referred to as "candies" are translucent finishes that offer unparalleled color depth. Typically, Transparent powder coating is applied over a bright silver substrate (polished, chrome plating etc.) for reflectivity which is necessary for color depth. If the part being coated is not suitably reflective, then a chrome-like or metallic silver base coat can be applied prior to the transparent top coat. Transparent powders are not quite as easy to spray as their Solid Tone counterparts. Varying coating thickness will return varying color depths. Mastering the Transparent powder coating spray technique requires closer attention to detail, but no other powder finish offers the level of depth that transparent do.

Occasionally powder coaters will try to hot flock their part where they heat the part prior to shooting the powder, this is especially true when applying two coats of powder coating like is often done with translucent powder coating. The reason for this practice is to help overcome issues with far a day cage effect because as you add a powder to a surface you begin insulating the surface making it less grounded, which leaves powder having a harder time attracting to the surface, more on shooting multiple powder coats is covered in this guide. The problem with this approach is it can be hard to know how much powder you have applied and the thickness of the coat you have applied because the powder starts to flow out and melt immediately as it is applied leaving you guessing at the uniformity and thickness of the coat. To overcome issues with uneven or to thick of coats when shooting transparent powder coating always apply the powder with the product surface your coating at room temperature (65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit).
