What Is Vinyl Coating?

Vinyl powder coating can be applied by electrostatic spray or fluidized bed techniques, typically in thicknesses from 7 to about 40 mils. It can be matched to nearly any color, and applied to numerous surfaces, as long as they tolerate the heat curing necessary to harden and permanently bond the coating.

Common Uses of Vinyl Coatings

Because they are so very versatile and customizable, long-lasting vinyl powder coatings are commonly applied to products that need to withstand heavy use or exposure to weather or other hazards.

1. Outdoor Furniture

Vinyl powder coatings easily tolerate extreme temperatures with solid performance, making them a perfect match for outdoor furniture which must withstand UV exposure and all sorts of weather.

2. Dishwasher Baskets

Hot water sprays, detergents, and frequent use mean dishwasher racks must be coated to withstand a lot. Vinyl powder coatings are a popular choice for coating them, ensuring long, problem-free performance and protection for fragile dishware as well.

3. Fencing

Vinyl coating can improve the strength, appearance, and feel of many types of metal fencing, such as common steel chain link fencing, turning it from a boring necessity into something stylish and appealing.

4. Storage Racks

Vinyl-coated wire storage racks play important roles in many homes and offices, from kitchen cupboards, closets, and pantries to garages, laundry rooms, and everywhere else. Often with a white vinyl coating, they can help keep dishes and other objects from sliding off of racks, and provide a clean, rust-free, slightly soft surface that protects delicate contents.

5. Grab Bars

Restroom grab bars can easily be given a colorful vinyl coating to match any decor. Better yet, such coatings offer a warmer, more comfortable feel, natural antimicrobial qualities, and add to the bars' service life, too.
