What Clients Are Saying
Surface Preparation You Can Trust
Durable finishes begin with a clean profile in Benton. Calibrated cabinets for sand blasting remove rust, mill scale, and failed paint, creating an anchor pattern that lets subsequent layers of powder coating bond firmly.
Items commonly prepped with sand blasting include:
Aluminum rims and motorcycle swingarms
Tractor hitches and cultivator frames
Ornamental benches
and patio sets
Structural railings
and stair treads
How the Powder-Coating Process Works
Because no liquid carrier is used, powder coating achieves a thicker, more uniform film than paint and, according to industry norms, can last up to 20 years.
Ground & mask
Parts are grounded; threads or machined faces are protected.
Electrostatic spray
Charged powder is applied uniformly.
Cure cycle
Parts bake at roughly 400 °F, creating a durable skin
Cool & inspect
Our technicians in Benton verify gloss, adhesion, and film build before packaging.

Longevity and Maintenance
In Benton, properly prepared powder coating stands up to daily wear far longer than wet paint. Wash finished parts with mild detergent, avoid abrasive pads, and inspect high-contact edges each season.

Customers across the Tri-State area receive the same meticulous preparation and durable finish in our Benton shop, regardless of order size.
Incoming parts are photographed and logged by our staff in Benton. During the sand blasting process, the nozzle pressure, media type, and surface-profile reading are all documented. Before curing, operators verify ground continuity and film-build targets on a test coupon.
After baking, cured samples from the same powder coating run undergo adhesion, hardness, and gloss checks. Records are archived in Benton so future repeat orders automatically replicate the original specification.
