Powder Coating in Charlottetown: FAQ

What is the difference between powder coating and wet paint?
Powder coating is thicker, more durable, and more environmentally friendly than wet paint. It produces zero VOC emissions, resists chipping and scratching better, and provides consistent coverage on complex geometries. Wet paint offers thinner films and wider color options for non-metal substrates.
What colors and textures are available for powder coating?
Hundreds of RAL and Pantone-matched colors are available in gloss, matte, satin, metallic, wrinkle, and sand textures. Custom color matching is standard - most Canadian shops can match a sample chip or color code within 2-3 days.
How durable is powder coating for outdoor applications?
AAMA 2604-rated coatings withstand 10+ years of exterior exposure. AAMA 2605 (super durable polyester) is warranted for 20+ years and is the standard for architectural curtain walls and storefronts. These coatings resist UV fading, chalking, salt spray, and chemical exposure.
Can powder coating be applied to aluminum?
Yes. Aluminum is the most commonly powder-coated material after steel. It requires chromate or chrome-free pretreatment for adhesion. Canadian architectural powder coaters routinely coat aluminum extrusions, panels, and castings to AAMA and Qualicoat standards.
