TRANSPARENT COPPER

Our powders have a general sustained heat rating of 250 Degrees Fahrenheit. Powders can withstand occasional spikes to 300 F without discoloring but unless a high-temp powder is used, most powders including Transparent Copper PPS-5162 will discolor or fade from this level of heat. High-temp powders are only offered in a very few color options, can be difficult to apply and tend to be brittle after cure. While we do not offer a high-temp powder at this time I would like to point to the high-temp options from our other product line CERAKOTE.

We can alter formulations including adding metallic but it's not as simple as it may sound. Anything added to an existing formulation or course, changes the formulation and therefor a battery of tests must be performed to know that the powder formula works as it should. There are charges for this re-formulation process. If you would like to review the application, it can be found in the "resources" section of our website.

Another way to achieve a metallic look with this color is to simply apply it over a metallic silver base coat color such as ALIEN SILVER PMS 2569 or ALLOY SILVER PMS 4983
