Cover Parts with Lifetime Coatings’ PVD

Ride More. Work Less. Turn Heads.

The folks at Lifetime Coatings, have found that many builders, manufacturers, dealers and bikers are seeking extremely durable, yet visually spectacular, coatings to trick out their bike parts. For so long, it seemed that powder coating, anodizing, ceramic and other common coatings were your only options. Lifetime Coatings will tell you that is not the case as they produce an extraordinary coating called PVD (physical vapor deposition.) The process takes place in a vacuum chamber which is pumped down to a millionth of atmospheric pressure. Inside the chambers, they sustain an electrical arc on solid titanium, or in some cases, zirconium, vaporizing and permanently bonding the metal to your parts. This is NOT a dipping or spraying process. This is permanent adhesion of actual colored metals to your parts.

• Does manufacturing process info make your head hurt? Then just know this: PVD adheres directly to stainless steel or chromed products.
• These coatings will not crack, chip, peel, fade or discolor and are nearly impossible to scratch.
• Original luster is never lost, so waxing and polishing are not required.
• They offer a wide range of colors: Black Ti ™, Copper Ti ™, Gold Ti ™ and many more.
• The Lifetime Coatings Ti coatings are 3X harder than chrome, ionically embedded and UV stable. Heat, wear and sun…bring them on!
• Is it more expensive? Yes, but worth it. The look will turn heads AND you only have to do it once.
• PVD doesn’t hide defects, so only send them high quality parts.
• Include original artwork with your order and they can even add graphics and textures to further enhance your look.
• If you need a quote, they’ll need complete dimensions on your parts. Hey, they’re not mind readers.

Just so you know, PVD is not a new technology. It is time tested and proven. For decades, they’ve supported industries such as automotive, tooling, hardware, plumbing, casino machines, beer towers, pharmaceutical, musical instruments and much more…and now they’ve opened up their doors to the motorcycle industry.
