3. Powder Coating

 

Standard Process

Sandblasting/phosphating pretreatment, electrostatic spraying + high-temperature curing, tough & durable coating.

 

Common Tricks

- No pretreatment, poor adhesion
- Use recycled/low-grade powder, easy to fade
- Insufficient curing, soft & scratchable coating
- Too thin coating with pinholes, inner rust

4.  Painting

Standard Process

Primer + topcoat + baking, strong adhesion & good anti-rust performance.

 

Common Tricks

- Skip primer, rust penetrates quickly
- Over-diluted paint, poor coverage
- Air-dry instead of baking, low hardness
- Insufficient coats, rough surface
