Some substrates, particularly non-ferrous, require an intermediate process between cleaning and priming for painting.
Trans-Acc regularly incorporates industrial metal pretreatment services for the majority of ferrous and all non-ferrous surfaces.
Trans-Acc will pre-treat depending on specification or application, as required. Pretreatment enhances corrosion resistance of these surfaces, as well as the adhesion of the coating material, supporting effective industrial coating surface preparation and helping improve lifespan with proper pretreatment before coating. To ensure the quality of our pretreated substrates, we perform a range of testing operations, including water break testing, accelerated corrosion resistance testing, salt spray testing, and dry adhesion testing.
Trans-Acc offers Metal Pretreatment Services to customers requesting one of our coating services, or as a stand-alone service. This integrated approach allows us to ensure smooth finishes with industrial wet coating services and protect components with heavy-duty plastisol coating services.

How Liquid Nylon Creates a Protective Barrier
As discussed by Corrosionpedia in “How Liquid Nylon Can Create an Impervious Coating Barrier,” liquid nylon coating technology is designed to create a continuous protective film that helps isolate underlying materials from corrosive and demanding environments. Self-leveling liquid nylon formulations can provide uniform coverage while minimizing pinholes and voids in the finished coating. These coatings… [Read More]
How Powder Coating Creates Durable Finishes
As discussed by Finishing Systems in “Powder Coating Benefits,” powder coating offers several advantages when compared with conventional liquid painting for suitable applications. Powder coatings can produce thick, consistent finishes without the runs or drips associated with some liquid coatings. The process can also provide strong resistance to impacts, moisture, chemicals, ultraviolet exposure, and other… [Read More]
Why Manufacturers Choose Powder Coating
As discussed by Fictiv in “Powder Coating: Process, Benefits, and Industry Applications,” powder coating combines electrostatic application and thermal curing to produce a durable finish on compatible components. Potential benefits include resistance to scratching, chipping, corrosion, and general wear, along with consistent coverage and a broad selection of finishes. Powder coating can be used across… [Read More]
How Does the Powder Coating Process Work?
As explained by Fine MetalWorking in “What is Powder Coating? Process & Uses,” powder coating applies a dry finishing material to a prepared surface and then cures the coating to create a continuous protective layer. Surface preparation is an important part of the process because contaminants can interfere with coating adhesion and finished quality. After… [Read More]
