Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about industrial powder coating and in-house sandblasting

How long does powder coating last?

When properly applied and maintained, powder coating can last 15-20 years outdoors and even longer indoors. Our industrial-grade powder coatings are specifically formulated to withstand Texas weather, UV exposure, and corrosion better than traditional paint.

What's the difference between powder coating and paint?

Powder coating uses dry powder electrostatically applied and heat-cured, creating a harder, more durable finish than liquid paint. It provides better coverage, no runs or sags, superior corrosion resistance, and can be environmentally friendlier with less VOC emissions. Paint requires multiple coats and longer cure times.

Can you powder coat large parts?

Yes! Our oven can accommodate parts up to 8 feet wide, 8 feet tall, and 16 feet long (8'x8'x16'). This handles most structural steel, equipment frames, and fabricated assemblies that DFW manufacturers need coated.

Do you offer sandblasting only?

Yes, we can provide standalone sandblasting services. However, most of our clients benefit from our integrated approach where we handle both surface prep and powder coating in-house, eliminating delays and ensuring optimal adhesion. Call us at 972-635-6010 to discuss your specific needs.

What's the turnaround time for powder coating?

Most jobs are completed in 3-7 days from drop-off to pickup. Rush services may be available for urgent projects. Because we handle sandblasting in-house, we eliminate the 1-2 week delay typical of shops that outsource surface prep.

What industries do you serve?

We specialize in B2B industrial applications for fabricators, OEM manufacturers, structural steel contractors, equipment manufacturers, and metal fabrication shops throughout the DFW Metroplex.

Do you do residential or automotive powder coating?

We focus exclusively on industrial and commercial B2B work. This allows us to maintain specialized equipment, expertise, and turnaround times that fabricators and manufacturers require.

How do I prepare parts for powder coating?

Our in-house sandblasting service means you don't need to do extensive prep work. Remove any loose dirt or grease, and we'll handle the surface preparation. For best results, we can discuss your specific parts and provide prep guidance when you request a quote.

Where are you located?

We're located in Royse City, TX (6413 Interstate 30 W, Royse City, TX 75189), just east of the DFW Metroplex. We serve fabricators and manufacturers throughout Dallas, Plano, Richardson, Garland, Mesquite, and surrounding areas.

What colors are available?

We stock common industrial colors (black, gray, white, safety yellow) and can order custom colors to match your specifications. Lead time for custom colors is typically 3-5 days. Contact us to discuss your color requirements.

Do you meet AISC specifications for structural steel?

Yes, we're experienced in coating structural steel to meet industry standards. We can discuss specific AISC or other specification requirements for your project.
