When you need a durable, professional finish that can stand up to Central Texas heat, humidity, and industrial wear, powder coating is one of the most reliable options available. This finishing process is trusted across industries—from automotive manufacturing to industrial equipment fabrication—for its ability to deliver lasting performance, aesthetic appeal, and long-term cost savings.
At CMT Finishing in Austin, Texas, we’ve been providing precision powder coating services for over 25 years, helping OEMs and manufacturers protect and enhance their products.
What Is Powder Coating?
Powder coating is a dry finishing process that uses finely ground pigment and resin particles. These are electrostatically charged, sprayed onto a metal surface, and then cured under heat. The result is a smooth, even, highly durable finish that resists chipping, scratching, fading, and corrosion.
Unlike traditional liquid paint, powder coating contains no solvents, which means it produces little to no volatile organic compounds (VOCs)—making it an eco-friendly coating option for businesses in Austin and beyond.
Our Powder Coating Process
At CMT Finishing, we follow a proven process to ensure both precision and performance:
- Surface Preparation – We clean and treat each metal surface to remove dirt, oil, rust, or old coatings for maximum adhesion.
- Application – Using advanced electrostatic spray equipment, we apply an even coat to all surfaces, including complex shapes.
- Curing – The coated part is heated in an industrial curing oven, allowing the powder to melt, flow, and chemically bond into a solid finish.
- Inspection & Quality Check – Every piece is inspected to meet industry standards and your specifications before leaving our Austin facility.
Key Benefits of Powder Coating
- Exceptional Durability – With superior resistance to chipping, scratching, and corrosion, powder coating performs exceptionally well in Central Texas’s challenging climate.
- Eco-Friendly – Minimal waste, no harmful solvents, and reusable overspray make powder coating an environmentally responsible choice.
- Cost-Effective Over Time – The long-lasting finish reduces the need for frequent refinishing, saving money in the long run.
- Wide Range of Colors & Finishes – From glossy metallics to textured matte, we can match your product’s functional and visual needs.
Common Powder Coating Applications
Powder coating is widely used where both performance and appearance matter:
- Automotive – Wheels, frames, and trim.
- Industrial Equipment – Machinery parts, frames, and housings.
- Consumer Goods – Patio furniture, bicycles, appliances.
- Construction – Metal railings, fencing, and structural components.
If it’s metal and needs to last in Austin’s heat or an industrial setting, powder coating is a top choice.
