Whether your project demands precision on a large scale or the finesse of a bespoke creation, Powder Pros welcomes the challenge.
Our cutting-edge batch oven can handle pieces up to 2.5 meters in length, accommodating a wide spectrum of projects. We offer an extensive palette of colours, drawing from premium local suppliers like Dulux Powders and Interpon Powder Coatings.

Our treatment tanks, measuring 1800x400mm, ensure comfortable accommodation for most projects, with a double-dipping option available for extended pieces. For items with unique shapes that may not suit tank immersion, we offer meticulous hand-wipe treatments using high-quality chemicals from our partner, Henkel.
Our Services
Comprehensive Metal Finishing Solutions
At Powder Pros, we offer a complete suite of metal finishing services, designed to enhance the beauty, durability, and longevity of your metal products.
From surface preparation to final finishing, we utilise cutting-edge techniques and premium materials to deliver exceptional results.
Paint Stripping
Removing the Past, Preparing for the Future
Our paint stripping process effectively removes old paint, oils, grease, and rust, providing a clean foundation for your new finish.
We utilise an alkali-based paint stripper, carefully monitoring the process to ensure optimal results without damaging the underlying metal.
For particularly stubborn coatings, such as European epoxy primers, we employ sandblasting to achieve bare metal perfection.
Pre-Treatment
The Key to Long-Lasting Finishes
Pre-treatment is crucial for ensuring proper powder coat adhesion and preventing corrosion. We meticulously clean, degrease, and etch the metal surface using Bonderite chemicals, creating an ideal profile for the powder coating process.
Sandblasting
Achieving the Perfect Surface Texture
Sandblasting is a versatile pre-treatment method that removes contaminants and creates a surface that promotes powder coat adhesion. Our compressed air and garnet combination effectively eliminates oils, mill scale, rust, paint, and other coatings.
Metal Polishing
Enhancing the Natural Beauty of Metal
Our metal polishing services transform oxidized or raw cast metal parts, revealing their inherent luster. We utilise various abrasive grits to achieve a smooth brushed or highly polished finish. This process can also be used prior to clear powder coating, preserving the natural beauty of the metal while adding a layer of protection.
Powder Coating
A Durable and Vibrant Finish
Powder coating provides a superior alternative to traditional paint systems, offering exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal. We apply the powder electrostatically and cure it in an oven, creating a uniform, long-lasting finish.
Specialisation
Precision Powder Coating for Automotive and Beyond
While we cater to a diverse range of projects, we have a particular passion for automotive parts. Our specialised vacuum systems and masking techniques guarantee flawless lines and striking two-tone finishes. We approach these projects with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring exceptional quality before they return to you.

Our expertise extends to the refurbishment of wheels, engine covers, motorbike frames, and more. We meticulously strip each item back to bare metal, providing the ideal foundation for a flawless, long-lasting finish.
Powder Coating: The Science Behind the Shine
Powder coating involves the electrostatic application of a dry powder to a metal substrate.

The coated piece is then cured in an oven at approximately 200°C, depending on the powder specifications. This process creates a robust, uniform surface that enhances the metal’s aesthetic appeal.
Compared to traditional paint systems, premium powder coat finishes offer an attractive appearance while providing superior resistance to chipping, scratching, and general wear and tear. Powder coating, when correctly applied, delivers exceptional durability and corrosion protection.
