Ceramic Coating

Looking for a premium finish that offers unbeatable protection and durability?

At PB Powder Coatings, we specialise in ceramic coating applications that deliver exceptional results for automotive, commercial, and industrial projects across the UK.

What is Ceramic Coating?

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds with surfaces to create an incredibly hard, protective layer. Unlike traditional paint or powder coating, ceramic coatings cure to form a thin, durable barrier that enhances both the appearance and resilience of the coated item.

The process involves careful surface preparation followed by precision application of the ceramic coating material. Once cured, the coating becomes a part of the surface, offering protection that won’t peel, chip, or fade.

At PB Powder Coatings, we use Cerakote, widely recognised as the industry leader in high-performance ceramic finishes. This ensures you get a finish that’s been proven in the most demanding applications, from motorsport to aerospace.

What Can Ceramic Coating Be Used On?

The versatility of ceramic coating means we can apply it to a wide range of items and materials. Here are just some of the projects we regularly undertake:

Automotive and Motorsport

Brake calipers, exhaust manifolds, engine components, and custom car parts that need to withstand heat and harsh conditions.

Motorcycle Parts

Engine cases, exhaust systems, frames, and custom motorcycle components.

Industrial Equipment

Tools, machinery, and specialist equipment that need to be resistant to heat or chemicals.

Outdoor Equipment

Items exposed to the elements that need protection from corrosion, UV damage, and wear.

Custom Projects

Whatever you have in mind, if it needs a durable, high-performance finish, ceramic coating is likely the answer. Not sure if your material is suitable? Just ask—we’re always happy to advise.

Ceramic Coating VS Powder Coating: What's the Difference?

Both ceramic coating and powder coating offer excellent protection and finish quality, but they work in different ways and excel in different applications.

Powder coating

Uses electrostatically charged powder particles that are sprayed onto a metal surface before being baked at high temperatures. This creates an extremely durable finish that’s brilliant for metallic items and provides excellent impact resistance. It’s perfect for bike frames, alloy wheels, garden furniture, and general metal fabrications.

Ceramic coating

On the other hand, is a thinner application that chemically bonds to the surface, applied by certified industry experts with years of experience. It offers superior heat resistance, corrosion protection, and abrasion resistance. Ceramic coatings can also be applied to a wider range of materials beyond metal, including plastics, polymers, and composites.
Here at PB Powder Coatings, we offer both services, so we can recommend the best solution for your specific project.

Ceramic coatings deliver a range of benefits that make them the preferred choice for demanding applications:

Heat Resistance

Ceramic coatings can withstand extreme temperatures, making them ideal for exhaust systems, brake & engine components, and any application where heat is a factor.

Protection From Corrosion

The chemical bond created by ceramic coating protects against rust, corrosion, and chemical damage. Your items stay protected even in harsh environments with exposure to salt, moisture, or industrial chemicals.

Outstanding Durability

Ceramic coatings are incredibly hard and resistant to scratching, abrasion, and wear. They maintain their appearance and protective properties far longer than traditional finishes.

Versatile Application

Unlike powder coating, which is limited to metal surfaces, ceramic coating can be applied to plastics, polymers, glass, and composite materials as well as metals.

Long-Lasting Performance

When properly applied and maintained, ceramic coatings can last for years without fading, chipping, or degrading, even under demanding use.
