Let’s Powder Coat It!
Students in this workshop will learn to create a clean, durable, and colorful finish on jewelry or other small metal objects through the industrial process of powder coating. During the weekend we will cover the basic methods of application, experiment with alternative processes, and discuss the equipment needed to assemble a personal powder-coating set-up. This workshop will provide students with a practical and accessible finishing option that can be easily integrated into any studio practice. Bring finished pieces, unfinished projects, and lots of metal objects to powder coat. Beginning students can work with pre-cut metal shapes, simple wire drawings, or found metal objects. Come ready to work and play! All levels. Lower metals studio.
