Revision as of 20:12, 27 March 2024
The Powder Coating Area within our Metal Shop at Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) consists mostly of Level 2 equipment.
Additional PPM training is required to use any of our Level 2 equipment.
All our Powder Coating Equipment combined occupies about 90 square feet (6'x18').
It is a small but important part of the 5,500 square foot building that we lease.
Powder Coating Area hand tools should be marked with pink tape, paint, or powder coating.

Classes and Training
New Member Orientation
Area Leader — Quinn Hackenberg
- To help out in the Powder Coating Area contact the Area Leader on Slack.
Classes
- PPM announces all its Upcoming events, including classes, on Meetup
Training
- Max part size to powder coat is 36"x45"x91"
Part prep
- Remove anything off the part that can’t handle 400°F
- Part must be clean and degreased to prevent contamination of media
- Sandblasting part first gives more grip for the powder to stick to and last longer
- If the part has been sandblasted, bake the part in the oven at 180°F until the part reaches temp to degas and discharge part. Then allow to cool.
- Tape anything off with high temp tape (PET, Kapton, Fiberglass) that you don’t want to be powered coated
- Once the part is cleaned and discharged do not touch part with your hands
Powder coat gun prep
- Make sure the gun is completely clean by blowing off any powder off and in the gun with air compressor
- Completely clean out all powder from the powder bottle if using a different color
- Only fill bottle 2in, NO MORE. The bottle needs air circulation to work properly.
- Set gun to high voltage for most things for the first coat and use low voltage for very small parts or second coats
- Set gun PSI to 3-5 PSI
Powder coating
- Place part on rack or hang from rack using stainless steel hooks or wire
- Connect ground wire to rack or wire
- Check ground by moving powder coat gun close to part (1-2in) and push power button to verify there electricity aches to the part. If not, adjust ground until you have a strong arch.
- Hold button and spray powder 6-8 inch away in a circular motion around part until the part is evenly coated.
- Start coating the parts that are deep and have 90 degree angles (low voltage may help if it’s not sticking) then coat the rest at high voltage
- Check evenness with led light
- If air from the gun is blowing powder off part PSI is too high
- If the powder is not sticking, the part may have not been cleaned well enough or not discharged enough
- If you mess up or want to restart you can blow off the powder and restart
Baking part
- Preheat oven to the temperature specified for the powder
- Place part in the oven being careful not to knock off any powder from part
- Measure the temp of the part until its at the specified temp for the powder being used (using IR thermometer)
- Once the part has reached temp bake the part for the specified time for the powder being used
- Carefully remove the part from the oven and allow it to cool down before handling
- To add a second coat, coat part hot at 180°F with good ground and on low voltage and rebake
