kerosian said:no, it is a coating of magnetic powder that is magnetized to your
unicycle frame, making it's bond better than typical paint.
Umm, powder coating is plastic, not a material reknowned for its
magnetic qualities.
Powder coating is a type of dry coating, which is applied as a
free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional
liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not
require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid
suspension form. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and
is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a "skin."
I think you meant to refer to the electrostatic charge put on the
frame/powder to cause it bond better. This is a technique has also been
used in professional spray paintintg for decades, to reduce paint waste
adn ensure even cover.
