Add powder-coated colors to your aluminum bleachers

One option to energize the look of aluminum bleachers is to add some color to the metal planks.

Bleacher seats, floorboards, and risers can now be powder-coated with a variety of attractive colors. The basic colors are red, blue, navy and green, however, custom colors that match specific team colors can also be ordered.

Adding powder-coated colors has several benefits. They include:

• Foster Team Spirit – the silver color of bleachers dominates the landscape at nearly every school and playing field in the US. Think how you can make your facility stand out by adding a brush of color to your aluminum bleachers. Fans will notice, players will be excited and your stadium will be the talk of the area.
• Reduce Glare – the sun shining on bleachers can create a glare for players and spectators. Painting over that glare provides a more pleasing visual appearance.
• Preserve the Look – adding powder-coated colors to aluminum bleachers adds an extra layer of protection against UV rays, dirt and wear. This finish is made to endure the elements and your bleachers will retain a vibrant look for years.
• Maintenance – powder-coating is easy to clean. Most of the time the planks can be cleaned with just soap and water.

The paint application process

Powder-coating is an advanced finishing technology that is used for most outdoor site furnishings today. Instead of wet paint, colors are added by spraying a dust-like powder onto the metal. That fine powder consists of pigment, polymer resins, and other chemicals.

The powder is applied with an electrostatic charge which causes the particles to adhere to the metal. The planks are then dried, allowing the powder-coat to cure. That fuses the paint to the aluminum to create a smooth coating.

This process provides a durable, uniform, attractive appearance for metal products that withstand all types of weather. Colors remain vibrant and bright for a long period of time.

In addition, powder-coating is more environmentally friendly than liquid coatings which may use harmful solvents. Powder-coating is also used for benches, picnic tables, bike racks, appliances, automobile parts and other common products.
