Maximum Thickness of Powder Coating
I'm new to this process, but I have been told that the maximum thickness of a powder coat is a function of the material specified, and excess simply falls to the ground. Can anyone confirm this for me, please?

That's an over simplification.
If sprayed onto cold metals, its possible to get a finished film thickness of between 30 and 150 microns.
If sprayed onto hot metal, from perhaps 80 to 500 microns.
Would be easier to answer if you said what you want to do, and why.
