Our Powder Coating Services

Comprehensive in-house powder coating and surface finishing solutions for custom metal parts, fabricated assemblies, and specialty industrial components.

Thermoset Powder Coating

We apply durable thermoset powder finishes—epoxy, polyester, nylon, polyurethane, and metallics—delivering exceptional corrosion, UV, and abrasion resistance for demanding industrial applications.

Blast Surface Preparation

Our dedicated blasting booth uses silica sand, steel shot, and bead blasting to remove defects, prepare surfaces, and maximize coating adhesion on metal parts and assemblies.

Custom & Specialty Finishes

From low-volume specialty jobs to custom metal fabrications, we offer consultative finish planning and execution to match your exact performance, aesthetic, and specification requirements.

Liquid Paint Application

In addition to powder coating, our paint shop applies liquid finishes suited for components requiring flexible or complex coating solutions beyond standard powder options.

Fabricated Assembly Coating

We coat fully fabricated assemblies of varying sizes and complexity, integrating finish services seamlessly within our broader manufacturing and project management workflow.

Integrated Finishing Workflow

Powder coating is coordinated within a complete project lifecycle—from CNC machining and welding to final inspection—eliminating extra vendors and reducing transportation costs.

In-House Expertise

Durable Finishes Engineered for Industrial Performance

At Douglas Machine & Engineering, our in-house paint shop and powder coating facility brings professional finishing capability directly into your project workflow. We apply thermoset powders—including epoxy, polyester, nylon, and polyurethane—formulated to resist corrosion, UV exposure, and mechanical abrasion in tough industrial environments. Every finish begins with thorough blast preparation and ends with a consultative review of your specifications, ensuring the final product meets or exceeds performance and aesthetic standards without the delays or costs of outside vendors.
