Our Services

Mediablasting – EPCNOLA has a 2-acre sandblasting yard with two six-ton pots and 1-600lbs pot for a variety of different media combinations. Depending on the project we use regular sand, aluminum oxide, walnut shells, garnet, etc. capable of cleaning steel parts to a near white finish (SSPC 5,7, & 10). We even have the capability to blast on-site. Please contact us for further assistance.

Powder Coating – Before powder coating or painting, the part receives a five-stage cleaning and pretreatment bath. EPCNOLA uses: Polyester Powders, Epoxy Powders, Hybrid Powders and Zinc-rich Powder. We stock over 800 powders including high, semi and flat gloss powders, and as well as wrinkles, textures, hammer tones, fluorescents, translucents, veins, special effects, clears and custom made powder coatings. We also cater to customers special needs such as mil specs and thickness issues. All of our work in covered under our standard industry leading 5 year warranty.

Industrial Painting – We also offer industrial 3-4 coat liquid painting. We use Carboline, Ameron, etc. Whatever the spec is, we have you covered. A certificate of compliance is given on every paint job from EPCNOLA.

Hydrographics - also known as immersion printing, water transfer printing, water transfer imaging, or cubic printing, is a method of applying printed designs to three-dimensional surfaces. The hydrographic process can be used on metal, plastic, glass, hard woods, and various other materials. This process is also known as "hydro-dipping".

In the process, the substrate piece to be printed is pre-treated and a base coat material is applied. A polyvinyl alcohol film is gravure-printed with the graphic image to be transferred, and is then floated on the surface of a vat of water. An activator chemical is sprayed on the film to dissolve it into a liquid and activate a bonding agent. The piece is then lowered into the vat, through the floating ink layer, which wraps around and adheres to it.

Powder Tough Coated

After removing the piece from the water, a top coat is applied to protect the design. With multiple dips, hydro-graphics printing can achieve full 360° coverage of the part surface, including small crevices.

EPCNOLA has three Hydro dipping tanks. We have a (2’X3’) for small parts such as door handles, guns, phone cases, etc. We also have a medium tank (6’X6’) and an extra-large tank (4’X12’) for bumpers and larger parts. Please call for more information.
