Powder Coating Care & MaintenanceUpdated 18 days ago

Powder Coating Care & Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of the coating, we recommend using pH-balanced soaps when washing your powder coated items. Harsher cleaners, degreasers, or acidic/alkaline soaps can break down the coating over time, leading to fading or premature wear. A mild automotive soap or dish soap mixed with water works great for routine cleaning.
Here are some additional tips to help keep your powder-coated doors looking their best:
  • Regular Cleaning – Wash your powder coated items periodically to remove dirt, dust, and road grime. A soft sponge or microfiber cloth works best to prevent scratches.
  • Avoid Abrasive Cleaners – Stay away from strong chemicals, pressure washers on high settings, or abrasive brushes that could damage the coating.
  • Rinse Thoroughly – Always rinse off any cleaning solution completely to prevent residue buildup.
  • Check for Chips or Scratches – If you notice any chips, touch them up with a matching paint or clear coat to prevent rust from forming.

By following these care steps, your powder-coated parts will stay in top condition for years to come.
