Outdoor Equipment (NAPSA)—Vacations and warm weather can mean more than fun and sun. They can also mean exposure to sand, rain, ocean air and other ele- ments that make for wear and tear on a wide range of outdoor products and recreational equipment, such as beach chairs, gardentools, grills, fishing equipment, tent poles and golf clubs. Powder coating makes products more resistant to harsh weather conditions. Fortunately, an advanced, more durable finishing process known as powder coating makes it easier to protect outdoor gear, without sacrificing style. Powder coating is an environmentally friendly finishing method that allows manufacturers to apply a decorative and protective finish to a wide range of materials and products.
