Do you need a durable, high-performance finish that covers every detail of your products? Are you searching for a coating that goes beyond color, delivering superior protection, long-lasting durability, and cost-effective performance?
Plastonics, based in Hartford, CT, offers electrostatic powder coating with a consistent and durable finish. This coating is ideal for a wide range of industrial applications. Whether you’re in automotive, medical, agricultural, or consumer goods industries, our electrostatic coating ensures your products are both protected and visually enhanced. Unlike traditional paints, our electrostatic coating provides a thicker and more even finish. It eliminates issues like running, dripping, or harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
At Plastonics, we use an advanced electrostatic powder coating process that guarantees a consistent and durable finish for your products.
The part is cleaned to remove dirt, oil, or debris. It may be preheated to allow for a thicker coating. Powder particles are charged with an electrical current and sprayed onto the grounded part. The particles attract to the surface, forming a smooth and even layer.
The coated part is placed in a curing oven. Heat melts the powder, creating a strong, durable finish that bonds to the surface.
The coating typically ranges from .001” to .004” thick. Multiple coats can be applied for a thicker finish, if needed.
After curing, each part is inspected to ensure a flawless finish. We check for even coverage and proper coating thickness.

Electrostatic coating involves applying powder paint to a part using an electrostatic spray gun, which charges the coating material with an electrical current. The part is grounded, attracting the charged particles, which form a uniform layer. The part is then heated to cure the electrostatic coatings, ensuring a durable and long-lasting finish.
Electrostatic spraying is widely used across industries such as automotive, medical, industrial machinery, consumer goods, and more. It’s ideal for applications where durability, aesthetics, and corrosion resistance are critical.
Electrostatic coating works on various materials, primarily metal surfaces such as steel, aluminum, and iron. It is particularly effective for products exposed to harsh environments, providing a strong protective layer.
The electrostatic spraying process applies a tough, uniform finish that helps protect products from damage, corrosion, and wear. The cured electrostatic coatings enhance resistance to chemicals, UV rays, and extreme weather conditions.
Yes, electrostatic spray coating is an eco-friendly option compared to traditional painting methods. It produces fewer emissions, uses less energy, and minimizes waste, making it a sustainable choice for businesses.
Lead times vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. However, Plastonics strives to provide fast and efficient service, typically completing projects within 5-10 business days. Expedited services are available when needed.
Typically, electrostatic spraying achieves a coating thickness of 0.001” to 0.004”, but multiple coats can be applied for added protection.
Some of the coating materials we use include nylon, vinyl, polyethylene, epoxy, polyester, polypropylene, polyolefins, and fluorocarbons, among others.
While electrostatic spray coating and electrostatic spray painting are similar processes and often confused, they have two key differences:
Both methods provide a smooth, even finish, but the choice depends on durability needs and application requirements.
