FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Below you'll find answers to the questions we get asked the most

    We have a 3 - 5 day turnaround time. This is dependent on the scope of your project. Please get in contact to discuss your particular needs.

  • WHAT ARE THE COLLECTION AND DELIVERY DETAILS?

  • WHAT AREA DO YOU COVER?

    We are based in Poole, Dorset meaning we are in the perfect position to cover the south coast region.

  • WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM SIZE STRUCTURE YOU CAN HANDLE?

    Any items that you wish to be powder coated have to be 6m x 2m x 2.2m or smaller, as these are the dimensions of our ovens.

  • WHEN IS POWDER COATING REQUIRED?

    Powder coating is strongly recommended when protecting object surfaces from rust and weathering, especially if they are going to be used outside. In addition, it can add a little colour, changing what otherwise could be a very dull metal finish.

  • WHY USE POWDER COATING OPPOSED TO OTHER FORMS OF PAINT?

    The main advantage of powder coating is it offers better protection. Powder coatings can produce much thicker coatings than conventional liquid coatings without running or sagging. Often it is twice as thick as wet painting methods and a proven track record against chips and scratches. Find out more about Powder Coating on our services page.

  • WHEN IS ZINC COATING REQUIRED?

    Zinc coating or zinc plating is ideal for protecting steel or iron against its natural enemy… rust. It can lengthen the lifespan of these metals for up to 30 years and at the same time reduce the maintenance costs. We strongly recommend zinc coating on any item especially if it is to be used outside.

  • WHAT DOES YOUR 10-YEAR POWDER COATING GUARANTEE COVER?

    This is offered on materials that have had the correct pre-treatment including either galvanizing or zinc coating, and only applicable to C & R Powder Coating defects.

  • ARE YOU ENVIRONMENTALLY MINDED?

    At every step of the process, we look after our environment as much as possible, being mindful of the resources we use.

  • HOW DO I MAKE A PAYMENT?

    We accept cash, cheque or we can invoice.
