What is e-coating?
E-coating, sometimes known as electroplating or EPD, is a specific type of paint finish that is designed to provide components with a protective and corrosion-resistant surface layer. E-coating is in the form of a paint which is applied onto the surface that requires protection. Once the paint has cured the project will have a new protective layer that is highly resistant to corrosion and salt spray.
How does e-coating take place?
E-coating takes place in our specially designed e-coating facilities on-site here at Pym and Wildsmith.
Before any e-coat paint system begins, it is important that we prepare the surface for treatment. If projects still have a residue of previous paint jobs or other treatments on them, the performance of the new e-coat paint could be jeopardised, we also may not be able to achieve maximum coverage.
To ensure the surface is clean enough to undertake the e-coating process, your project will go through the recommended pre-treatment, cleaning process.
Once cleaned the items will be loaded on to our e-coat line. The result of the process is a fully coated component with a layer of durable protection.
