Yes, it is possible to color match car paint with powder coat, but note the two materials have different properties and application methods. Car paint is typically applied using a liquid spray, whereas powder coat is applied using an electrostatic spray gun and then cured in an oven. Additionally, car paint and powder coat have different textures and sheens, which can affect the final color match. But through our expertise and close relationships with our powder coat manufacturers, we’re able to achieve an almost exact color match to your vehicle or color of choice.
Powder coating is available in a wide variety of colors, finishes, and textures, making it a versatile option for many applications. The exact colors available can vary depending on the manufacturer, but typically there are hundreds of different colors to choose from. Some of the most popular colors include:
In addition to solid colors, powder coating is also available in metallic, gloss, matte, textured, and wrinkle finishes. Many of our manufacturers also offer custom color matching to create a specific color that matches a client's needs or branding.
It's important to note that the exact color and finish of a powder-coated surface can vary depending on the application method, the type of powder coat, and the curing process.
Yes, on most applications we add a final step of clear coat to provide additional durability, protection, and shine. The clear coat can help to resist scratches, UV rays, and environmental elements, and can also enhance the appearance of the underlying powder coat by adding depth and gloss.
Adding a clear coat to powder coat can be a good option for applications that require extra protection, such as automotive parts, outdoor furniture, or metal sculptures. Working with an experienced powder coating provider like Espo’s Powder Coating can help ensure that the final product is both durable and aesthetically pleasing.

Each shade offers a unique appearance and texture, making it possible to achieve a customized look for a wide range of applications, from automotive parts and furniture to architectural features and industrial equipment.
Powder coating is a dry finishing process that involves applying a fine powder to a surface electrostatically. The powder is then cured under heat to create a durable and attractive finish.
Yes, powder coating offers several advantages over traditional paint. It provides a more durable and long-lasting finish, is resistant to chipping, scratching, and fading, and offers superior color retention. Additionally, powder coating is environmentally friendly as it produces no volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
While powder coating is highly durable, it is not completely immune to scratching. However, it is more resistant to scratching compared to traditional paint. Taking proper care and avoiding abrasive materials can help maintain the finish's integrity.
In most cases, it is not recommended to powder coat over paint. For optimal results, the surface should be properly prepared by removing any existing paint, rust, or contaminants before powder coating. This ensures better adhesion and a longer-lasting finish.
Powder coating is generally considered cost-effective due to its durability and longevity. While the upfront cost may be slightly higher than traditional painting methods, the long-term savings in maintenance, repainting, and replacement make it a more economical choice.
In theory, it is possible to strip and reapply powder coating multiple times. However, excessive reapplication can compromise the integrity of the coating and may not yield desirable results. It is advisable to get in touch with Espos Powder Coating first to determine the best course of action for your powder coating needs.
The duration to powder coat wheels can vary depending on factors such as the number of wheels, their size, and the complexity of the design. Typically, the process takes a few days, allowing for proper surface preparation, coating application, and curing time.
