Metallic Powders
Is it possible to powder coat using metallic powders?
Q. Is it possible to powder coat using metallic powders? If so, what powder particle size is required? Are there special set-ups for metallic powder? I want to apply nickel and cobalt-base powders that would subsequently be fused at around 2,200°F. J. Z.
A. I am sorry, but there is no one available to answer your question right now. Please call back another time, when there is someone here. Thank you for your patience and we look forward to serving you in the future. Good-bye.
Epilogue...
Just so that you don’t think I am a total jerk, I called the last questioner and gave him his answer on the telephone. It just does not make sense to print this answer in the magazine.
See you all next month, when my silliness fit will be over and we can get back to the more typical questions on powder coating and my usual insightful answers.
