Abstract
A method of preparing a homogeneous thermosetting powder paint composition which cures to form a coating exhibiting outstanding exterior durability, adhesion, impact strength and, in particular, color match. The method comprises: introducing a liquid paint composition including at least a cross-linkable copolymer and a uniformly dispersed pigment into an evaporating zone adapted to heat said liquid paint so as to evaporate the inert solvent contained therein; passing the liquid paint into a separating zone; causing said solvent vapor to be removed; removing the non-volatile components of said paint in a molten state; cooling said non-volatile components; and pulverizing to form a powder.
