How Direct-To-Metal Works
DTM coatings are applied directly to prepared metal surfaces using a professional spray process. After application, the coating is cured using infrared heat to achieve a durable, OEM-style finish without the long oven bake cycle of traditional powder coating.
Our 2K DTM kits are available with two activator speeds—Standard and Fast—and are packaged as ready-to-use sets with consistent mixing ratios for repeatable results.
Mix Ratios:
- Activator
- Non-Iso Clearcoat / Color
- Hardener

Time and Labor Efficiency
DTM coatings are specially engineered with reduced surface tension to effectively wet and adhere to metal surfaces, creating a bond that standard paints cannot accomplish without a primer.

Corrosion Protection
These formulas often include advanced anti-corrosive additives (such as zinc phosphate) to protect bare metal directly from rust and oxidation.

Durability
offers high resistance to chipping, chemicals, and harsh weather conditions, matching the performance once only found in multi-layer systems
