What you need to know about powder coating cost estimates
So you wish to know how much products and services related powder coating cost. Whether you need commercial-scale application, want your rims or wheels powder coated, or are looking to apply coating powder yourself, you have come to the right place. In this article we provide you with an overview of powder coating cost for industrial applications, DIY powder coating, and all other powder coating services.
Powder coating cost and pricing are determined by several aspects of the project:
- The amount of pretreatment required
- The type and colour of the powder
- The surface area of the part or object
- The application method
Because the powder coating paint price decreases as the quantity increases, it is more cost-effective to powder coat bigger projects than smaller ones.
Industrial powder coating cost and how to get the best price
The powder cost is dependent on the item, colour and finish.
When it comes to industrial powder coating applications, the applicator will usually purchase powder paint directly from the manufacturer, providing you with a range to choose from. The prices vary depending on the manufacturer, the type of powder, and the nature of the contract with the supplier. It can often be beneficial to contact the manufacturer to enquire directly about powder coating cost based upon their product, and the applicators they supply.
Applicators tend to give a flat rate per item or a variable rate for mass jobs, depending on the difficulty of coating the objects, as well as their size. If pretreatment such as sandblasting is required, this may also add up to the costs. If you are searching for industrial powder coating companies, make sure to find out whether the company has the equipment and ability to coat your project.
