Paint Process

[jetpack54]

Pardon my ignorance here, but I am not aware you can powder coat plastic panels. Metal yes, we do it all the time, but how do you apply the voltage differential to a plastic panel? My only experience with this involved a static charge, and that repelled paint, not attracted it. Ended up buying new Ninja panels....

Thanks fellas. That answered our questions!

I have always sided on no paint.

Great info. Thanks for posting. It basically answers my questions about this pain process for SMC materials.

I hope my body shop can match this paint in the unlikely event I may need it.

There is much less waste with the electrostatic charged type of painting as well. Boeing uses this on the airplanes to a great savings over the 'old' way of painting. Produces a nice paint job as well.
