Electrodeposition coating, or e-coat, is the penultimate stage of our painting system. Once we hang parts and send them through a seven-stage wash, a ‘bath’ gets all the oil, dirt, and grime off. The parts then go through a tank system that does another secondary wash before the electrodeposition coating paint is applied. The paint line is charged to better attach itself to the metal.
Typically used in automotive applications, e-coat is a primer system that beats any other primer on the market. Anything that we put together here at Stephan Wood Products, whether it be for a commercial customer or the military — and it is aluminum or steel — has e-coat on it, or e-coat underneath it. A final application of carbon paint completes the process. Because of e-coat’s excellent adhesion properties, it’s a significant benefit to anything that we sell and paint.
