Phosphate System

Good Paint offers a 4 Stage Iron Phosphate System with 800 gallon tanks that pre-treat parts prior to Powder Coating or Painting.

Phosphating or phosphate conversion is a manufacturing process in which an acidic bath solution reacts with the metal part or weldment and combines with or causes a chemical conversion that transforms the surface of the metal part into a protective layer, which is uniform and inert to the environment. Such conversion coating combinations include zinc phosphate, iron phosphate, chromate, or manganese phosphate.

Iron phosphate pretreatment is the most common pretreatment for powder coating and painting because it can be used with almost any material and has more environmentally friendly by-products or sludge.

Phosphating can be performed on ferrous (iron,steel based) and non-ferrous (zinc,aluminum, and manganese).
