Polyester Powder Coat

Powder coating is an efficient method to apply a hard wearing, weatherproof surface finish to steel products. The process works by applying a free flowing polyester powder, using an electrostatic gun. The items then pass through an oven to melt the powder to form a hard surface. Most RAL & BS colours as standard.

LIFE INDICATOR 2 - 3 years

Colour Range
Furnitubes PPC is available in the full range of RAL and BS4800 colours. The European RAL and British BS systems are a convenient way of specifying exterior paints. Swatches are available from most paint suppliers and they enable specifiers to ensure that the colours are consistent within a scheme.

Maintenance
Check coatings twice a year and wipe away any dirt with a damp cloth and light detergent. 'Harsh' cleansers may be used, although not on a regular basis as they may effect gloss level. Repaint damaged or worn areas and consider a complete regular maintenance re-paint every 2-3 years as below.

On-site Damage Repair
Should any painted product have their finish damaged, it can be repaired using the following method:

1. Flatten paint surface with a fine Scotch-Brite Pad.
2. Leave to stand for 24hours to allow excess solvents to evaporate.
3. Overcoat with Cromadex 233 Brush and Roller Decorative Finish Recommend 2 coats.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the galvanising process some surface irregularities may occur but this in no way detracts from the performance of the product.

If a galvanised item is then powder coated this may lead to any irregularities being magnified but again, this in no way detracts from the performance of the product.
