Consider an upgraded powder coat finish for your Rack-It Rack. Powder Coating offers increased surface durability will increase the life of the great looking finish.
The Powder Coating difference:
No matter what level of powder coating finish you select for your Rack-it Truck Rack, a phosphate pretreatment is always applied. The phosphate coating is a porous transition layer between the coating and the material and can absorb the coating material. Upon curing, the coating solidifies, locking into the phosphate pores. This action provides excellent adhesion. We also use a D.I. water system which improves the final pretreatment quality by eliminating any mineral deposits on the parts.
In the upgraded powder coating process, a uniform mixture of electrostatically charged powder particles containing plastic resins and pigments (that impart color) is sprayed on a pretreated metal surface. It is then cured in an oven. In the oven, the powder goes through a gel and hardening stage that ensures a uniform, drip free surface.
The initial preparation or pre treatment is very important for a successful powder coating. If necessary, chemical treatment and abrasive blasting is done for successful powder coating. Pre treatment increases adhesion of the powder coat to the metal.

Let's take a look at our Powder Coating offerings from most economical to the top of the line finish:
Top Coat only - This is the most common powder coating job we offer. One coat of powder goes down on the rack and it's off to cure in the oven.
Primer Coat + Top Coat - Adding a primer coat to the rack is a great idea as it provides an additional moisture barrier layer. The primer is laid down right after the phosphate rinse and then is cured before receiving the final top coat.
Primer Coat + Top Coat + Clear Coat - Finishing off the rack with a clear coat creates a triple layered finish that is very difficult to penetrate.
Media Blast Pretreatment + Primer Coat + Top Coat + Clear Coat - This is the best finish solution available through Rack-it. We begin by media blasting the entire surface of the rack. This process provides good bonding of the coating to the material due to the surface profile left by the blast media.
Whatever your need is, Rack-It can provide it.
