Powder coatings unlike some traditional liquid coatings, do not require solvents in their formulation and are considered to be 100 percent solids. Powder coatings are typically applied electrostatically and then oven-cured. The end result is a hard finish that is often tougher than most conventional liquid coatings. Powder coatings can be used for a wide variety of applications and end-use markets such as automotive parts, outdoor furniture, home appliances and metal furniture and architectural metal.
