Pretreatment Engineered for Paint & Powder Coating
Conversion coatings, phosphates, cleaners, seals, and pretreatment chemistry designed to improve paint adhesion, corrosion resistance, process consistency, and coating performance.
Better coating performance starts before the paint or powder is applied.
Pretreatment is the foundation for coating adhesion, corrosion resistance, and long-term finish performance.
Ronatec pretreatment technologies are designed for paint and powder coating operations that need clean, consistent, production-ready surfaces across ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
From multi-metal cleaners and iron phosphates to inorganic conversion coatings, final seals, rinses, and complementary products, Ronatec helps finishers improve process reliability and coating results.

Process chemistry designed to support adhesion, corrosion protection, and production consistency.
Paint Adhesion
Prepare the substrate to help paint and powder coatings bond more reliably to the metal surface.
Corrosion Resistance
Conversion coatings and final seals can help improve corrosion protection and salt spray results.
Cleaner Surfaces
Remove oils, grease, carbon soils, waxy inhibitors, light corrosion, and other difficult contaminants.
Multi-Stage Washers
Products designed for multi-stage spray systems, agitated immersion, soak tanks, and belt washers.
Lower Temperature Options
Low-temperature cleaners can help reduce energy use without sacrificing cleaning performance.
Process Safety
Neutral pH and low-conductivity products can support safer, more operator-friendly pretreatment lines.
Modern pretreatment options for paint and powder coating lines.
Ronatec provides conversion coatings and pretreatment products for operations looking to improve adhesion, corrosion resistance, salt spray performance, and process efficiency.
High-performance pretreatment with reduced process burden.
Ronatec inorganic conversion coatings are formulated to replace traditional iron phosphate in certain applications. These coatings can require little or no heat, form a microcrystalline surface, and help improve paint adhesion and corrosion protection.
Phosphates, cleaners, seals, rinses, and service tools for coating operations.
Iron Phosphate
I-Phos and Ronaphos iron phosphate products are designed for proven pretreatment performance, paint adhesion, and corrosion resistance in paint and powder coating lines.
Zinc & Manganese Phosphate
Products designed to provide uniform phosphate structures and support demanding corrosion resistance, lubricity, and coating weight requirements.
Inorganic Conversion Coatings
Modern conversion coating options designed to reduce phosphate, minimize sludge, lower total dissolved solids, and support high-performance adhesion and corrosion protection.
Final Seals & Rinses
Sealers and rinses designed to eliminate flash rust, enhance paint adhesion, and improve corrosion resistance after conversion coating.
Multi-Metal Cleaners
Cleaners for oils, grease, carbon soils, fatty acid soils, waxy corrosion inhibitors, light corrosion, and other difficult production contaminants.
Complementary Products
pH adjusters, cleaner boosters, solvent additives, wetting agents, rust removers, and auxiliary tools for pretreatment process support.
Pretreatment chemistry for real manufacturing environments.
Ronatec products are designed for use in multi-stage spray systems, agitated immersions, soak tanks, and belt washers.
Whether your line is focused on cleaning, phosphate conversion, inorganic conversion coating, sealing, or rinsing, Ronatec can help evaluate the chemistry and process conditions needed to improve coating performance.

Pretreatment and conversion coating questions.
What is pretreatment before paint or powder coating?
Pretreatment is the cleaning and conversion coating process used to prepare metal surfaces before finishing. It helps improve paint adhesion, corrosion resistance, and long-term coating performance.
What is iron phosphate pretreatment?
Iron phosphate is a conversion coating commonly used before paint or powder coating to improve adhesion and corrosion protection on metal parts.
What are inorganic conversion coatings?
Inorganic conversion coatings are modern pretreatment technologies designed to form a microcrystalline surface that can improve paint adhesion and corrosion resistance while reducing sludge and process burden.
Can Ronatec support multi-stage washer systems?
Yes. Ronatec pretreatment products are designed for use in multi-stage spray systems, agitated immersion systems, soak tanks, and belt washers.
