Polyester Hammer Powder Coating

For maximum adhesion the substrate must be thoroughly cleaned of grease, rust etc. by shot blasting, solvent or chemical degreasing. For maximum protection it is essential to pretreat the substrate prior to the application of Thermaset Limited Polyester Hammer Powder Coating.

Aluminium

Galvanized steel
Galvanized steel requires multi-stage pretreatment with either zinc phosphate or chromate conversion. Depending on the type of galvanizing, degassing or use of anti bubbling additives may be required. Detailed advice should be sought from the pretreatment supplier.

Ferrous substrates
Ferrous substrates require iron or zinc phosphate pretreatment. Detailed advice should be sought from the pretreatment supplier.

Can be applied by manual or automatic electrostatic spray equipment, an even dry film thickness of 120 – 140 microns is recommended.
