At Premier Polysteel, we pride ourselves on offering the best commercial outdoor furniture available. Period. A key component of our superior products is the plastisol dip coating process. This technique creates a tough, durable finish that withstands the harshest environmental conditions. If you’re looking for outdoor furniture that won’t rust or corrode, you’re in the right place. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about plastisol dip coating, why it’s superior, and how it enhances the longevity of our products.
What is Plastisol Dip Coating?
The plastisol dip coating process involves fully immersing metal parts into a liquid plastisol (polyvinyl plastic) solution. This method creates a thick, uniform coating that bonds directly to the metal surface, providing a durable and flexible layer of protection. The result? A product that resists rust, abrasion, chemicals, and extreme weather conditions.
At Premier Polysteel, we coat every part of our products, including the legs and braces, to ensure complete protection against moisture, salt, and other corrosive elements. Unlike other methods of covering steel, plastisol-coated steel is engineered for long-lasting performance and exceptional durability. This comprehensive approach guarantees unmatched protection for our furniture, whether it’s a picnic table, park bench, or garbage receptacle.
The Benefits of Plastisol Dip Coating
Abrasion and Chemical Resistance
The plastisol coating acts as a barrier against moisture to prevent the steel from rusting. It also has an added mold inhibitor to reduce mildew. All common cleaning solutions can be used safely on plastisol surfaces.
Rust-Free Protection
Unlike powder coatings or basic paint finishes that can peel and chip, our plastisol-coated products do not allow moisture to reach the steel and cause rust. This makes them an ideal choice for outdoor settings exposed to moisture, salt air, or other corrosive conditions.
Enhanced Durability
The cured plastisol forms a tough, flexible layer that withstands impacts, temperature fluctuations, and other environmental challenges. Whether it’s a park bench or a picnic table, you can trust it to endure.
Smooth, Safe Finish
The oven-cured plastisol coating results in a smooth surface that is safe to touch, with no sharp edges or exposed metal. Plus, the coating is UV-stable and mold-resistant, ensuring long-term functionality and appearance.
How We Apply Plastisol Coating: A Proven Process
Our meticulous plastisol coating process ensures a superior, long-lasting finish for every product. Here’s how we do it:
- Preparation: We start by thoroughly cleaning the metal parts to remove any residue, rust, or debris. This step ensures the plastisol coating bonds properly to the surface.
- Priming: A specially formulated primer is applied to the metal and baked on at high temperatures. This creates a strong foundation for the plastisol to adhere.
- Dipping Process: The pre-heated metal part is fully immersed in liquefied plastisol. This process creates a thick, uniform coating that provides exceptional coverage and protection.
- Curing: The dipped part is oven-cured at high temperatures to ensure the plastisol adheres firmly to the metal. This curing process results in a durable, flexible, and smooth finish that can withstand the toughest conditions.
This careful attention to detail ensures that every Premier Polysteel product is built to last, offering superior protection and aesthetic appeal.

Why Plastisol Coating Outperforms Other Methods
Not all coatings are created equal. Here’s why plastisol dip coating is the superior choice for outdoor metal products:
- Thicker Coating: Plastisol provides a thicker, more uniform layer of protection compared to powder coatings, which can chip or peel.
- Superior Adhesion: The heat-cured plastisol bonds tightly to the metal, reducing the risk of peeling or flaking over time.
- Chemical Resistance: The plastisol coating resists most harsh chemicals and solvents, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding environments.
