Color Shift Coatings came together as a husband-and-wife team with a passion for power coating and a dream of running a business together. As a local of the PNW, we aim to bring our skills and expertise to our hometown all while building a family owned business that our community can be proud of.
We don’t just specialize in powder coating.
We specialize in the detail it takes to give a quality and unique product. To achieve this, we sourced out top quality equipment along with industry leading powder.
While setting the customer experience as our highest priority, we set convenience at the top by offering a full-service process for vehicles. You simply drop your vehicle off and pick it up when it’s complete…
We handle everything else.
Quality from start to finish.
While on site we will use our team of trained technicians to properly lift your vehicle, remove your wheels, dismount your tires, strip your existing finish, repair minor curb rash, powder coat the wheels, mount and balance your tires, and properly torque your lug nuts to factory specification.
If it’s calipers that you are refinishing, they will go through a process of removal, disassembly, stripping of existing finish, high heat masking and plugging, 2 coats of powder for added protection, rebuilding of the internal parts, installation, a full brake pressure bleed, and a performance test to ensure proper function.
Not just for automotive.
Outside of automotive, Industrial has a large presence in powder coating. From high pressure sandblasting to applying a base coat of Zinc or Epoxy Primer, durability and longevity is our goal.

Powder Coating
Powder coating is a dry finishing process that has become extremely popular since its introduction in North America over in the 1960s. Representing over 15% of the total industrial finishing market, powder is used on a wide array of products. More and more companies specify powder coatings for a high-quality, durable finish, allowing for maximized production, improved efficiencies, and simplified environmental compliance. Used as functional (protective) and decorative finishes, powder coatings are available in an almost limitless range of colors and textures, and technological advancements have resulted in excellent performance properties.
Powder coatings are based on polymer resin systems, combined with curatives, pigments, leveling agents, flow modifiers, and other additives. These ingredients are melt mixed, cooled, and ground into a uniform powder similar to baking flour. A process called electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) is typically used to achieve the application of the powder coating to a metal substrate. This application method uses a spray gun, which applies an electrostatic charge to the powder particles, which are then attracted to the grounded part. After application of the powder coating, the parts enter a curing oven where, with the addition of heat, the coating chemically reacts to produce long molecular chains, resulting in high cross-link density. These molecular chains are very resistant to breakdown. This type of application is the most common method of applying powders. Powder coatings can also be applied to non-metallic substrates such as plastics and medium density fiberboard (MDF).
Sometimes a powder coating is applied during a fluidized bed application. Preheated parts are dipped in a hopper of fluidizing powder and the coating melts, and flows out on the part. Post cure may be needed depending on the mass and temperature of the part and the type of powder used. No matter which application process is utilized, powder coatings are easy to use, environmentally friendly, cost effective, and tough!
Powder coating is a high-quality finish found on thousands of products you come in contact with each day. Powder coating protects the roughest, toughest machinery as well as the household items you depend on daily. It provides a more durable finish than liquid paints can offer, while still providing an attractive finish. Powder coated products are more resistant to diminished coating quality as a result of impact, moisture, chemicals, ultraviolet light, and other extreme weather conditions. In turn, this reduces the risk of scratches, chipping, abrasions, corrosion, fading, and other wear issues.
It’s tough. It looks great. And it lasts a long, long time!
Sand Blasting
Sandblasting, sometimes known as abrasive blasting, is the operation of forcibly propelling a stream of abrasive material against a surface under high pressure to smooth a rough surface, roughen a smooth surface, shape a surface, or remove surface contaminants.
Sandblasting can remove paint, rust, and residue from oxidation from materials quickly and efficiently. Sandblasting can also be used to change the condition of a metal’s surface, such as through removing scratches or casting marks. Sandblasting as a cleaning method has been widely used for over a hundred years.
We use Sandblasting to make sure that the surface is free of contamination prior to our refinishing process. The also ensures that we get great adhesion between the existing surface and the freshly applied powder. We use various grits of media to help suit each project individually.
Warranty Information
Our Powder Coating has a 1 year warranty against any cracking, peeling, or chipping where the customer was not at fault of the damage.
Powder Coating Services & Pricing
*Sandblasting is included with all powder coating services.
Wheels x4
Wheel Powder Coating includes everything from when you drop off your vehicle to when you pick it up. During the process we will remove your wheels, dismount your tires, sandblast your rims, remove any minor curb rash, apply the powder, mount/balance your tires, install your wheels with proper torque settings on the lug nuts, and adjust your air pressure to factory specification.-
Starting at $630
Calipers x4
Caliper powder coating is a much more involved process. Each caliper will be removed from your vehicle, fully disassembled, properly cleaned and sandblasted, high heat masked and plugged, 2 coats powder that includes and basecoat with topcoat for added durability and protection against chemicals, fully reassembled and installed, a pressure brake bleed, and finally a performance test to ensure proper braking feel and functionality.-
Starting at $850
MISCELLANEOUS PARTS
There are a few variables when determining price for powder coating miscellaneous parts and projects. Included with every project will be average stripping time for removing the original finish and cleaning properly prior to powder coating. There may be an added cost for disassembly or reassembly, additional preparation such as excessive masking, plugging, or sandblasting. There may be a reduced cost for raw metal parts.-
