Enhance Your Vehicle with Powder Coating
Looking for a sleek, durable finish for your wheels or other metal components? At Inspire Automotive Design, we specialize in high-performance powder coating that delivers both style and strength. Powder coating has become the go-to solution for wheel customization—not just for its good looks, but because it outlasts traditional paint by a mile.
Powder coating is a high-quality, long-lasting finish applied as a dry powder. The powder is electrostatically charged, allowing it to adhere to metal surfaces before being cured under heat. Powder coating is ideal for automotive wheels and parts, offering both durability and a wide range of color and texture options for a custom look.
Why Choose Powder Coating?
When you choose powder coating, you're investing in long-term protection and a factory-fresh finish.
Perfectly Matched, Every Time
We recommend coating all four wheels at once to ensure uniformity in color and texture. No guesswork. No mismatched tones. Just a flawless, cohesive look that elevates your entire vehicle.
Explore Thousands of Finish Options
From ultra-glossy blacks to matte silvers and bold candy colors, our powder coating options are nearly endless. Whether you're going for subtle sophistication or bold individuality, we’ll help you find the perfect finish to match your style.
Durable, Long-Lasting
Unlike standard spray paint, powder coating forms a tougher, more resilient surface that’s built to take on the road. It resists chipping, scratching, and flaking—even during tire changes and seasonal weather shifts.
The Powder Coating Process
Wet painting uses liquid paint that dries through evaporation and requires a solvent-based application, which can be less durable and more prone to chipping.
Powder coating, on the other hand, uses electrically charged powder that’s heat-cured to form a tougher, more resilient finish resistant to scratches, chemicals, and weather. Here’s the general process to deliver top results:
1. Prep Work That Sets the Foundation
Every great finish starts with expert preparation. We begin by stripping away any old coatings, road grime, and imperfections to ensure the metal surface is completely clean. This gives the powder coat a pristine base to adhere to—essential for a flawless result.
2. Precision Powder Application
Using a specialized electrostatic spray gun, we evenly apply the powder to your wheels. The static charge ensures full coverage—even in hard-to-reach contours and corners—so every inch of your wheel is treated with the same care and precision.
3. Curing for Strength and Durability
Once coated, the wheels are placed in our professional-grade curing oven. The heat activates the powder, causing it to melt and chemically bond to the metal surface. This creates a hard, impact-resistant finish that can withstand everything from potholes to harsh winter salt.
Powder Coating FAQs
How long does powder coating last?
Powder coating is known for its exceptional durability and longevity. When properly applied by professionals and maintained correctly, it can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years depending on the environment and usage. Factors such as weather exposure, road salt, and how often the vehicle is driven all play a role in how long the finish will hold up.
Unlike traditional paint, powder coating is highly resistant to chipping, scratching, fading, and corrosion. It creates a thick, even finish that bonds tightly to the metal surface, offering long-lasting protection. With routine cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasives, your powder-coated wheels or parts can maintain their vibrant appearance for many years.
Can powder coating be repaired?
Yes, powder coating can usually be repaired if it gets damaged. The affected area is typically stripped, cleaned, and then recoated to match the original finish. While small chips or imperfections may be touched up, more extensive damage often requires a full reapplication to ensure consistency and durability.
It's important to have a professional evaluate the condition of the coating to determine the best repair method. At Inspire Automotive Design, we can assess your wheels and recommend the right solution to restore their look and protection.
How long does powder coating take?
The time can greatly vary based on the exact components you want powder coated. It can range anywhere between 2 to 5 days to complete the job. We have to consider prep work like stripping the current color, cleaning the surface, and then doing the actual powder coating process.
