Metallic Flake Powder Coating About

Introduction

Enhance the beauty of your workpiece with special powder additives, offering a personalised and stunning touch.

Thanks to microscopic flakes, flake powders are available to provide depth and brilliance. A uniquely stunning finish is achieved by combining flakes with base or clear coat powder, applied over a base colour such as black high gloss. Mixing flakes into the base colour and finishing with a transparent coat adds depth to the colour layer.

Customise the colour flakes to achieve the desired effect. For a subtle touch, opt for flakes matching the base colour. Alternatively, choose contrasting flakes to make the colours truly stand out in your coating layer. Unleash your creativity and elevate your workpieces appearance with these exceptional powder additives.
