This is similar to the process of applying to dry paints. The final cured coating is similar to the effects of applying a two-pack wet paint. By giving the object a powder coating, the product ends up relatively hard and abrasion resistant.
There is a possibility for failure. Problems might occur when applying the powder coating. This is due to a lack of preparation. Each product needs different preparation depending on the material of the object. Search online for tips on avoiding these
