At Abilene Powder Coating we believe surface preparation is the most

important part of powder coating. The end finish is only as good as what it is applied to. The powder coating process begins at our In-House blasting facility for surface preparation. Our blasting room is 15' X 30' .

Sandblasting the surface of your material prior to coating provides an excellent surface for the powder coating to adhere to. With the best possible adhesion for the powder coating, the finished product will be much more durable.

Our blasting system uses garnet, coal, or nickel slag to remove the old finish, metal oxides or manufacturing bi-products that are on the metal surface. At Abilene Powder Coating we do not use "Silica" sand for blasting purposes as it will damage the powder coating finish during the curing process in the oven.
