Powder coating finish levels let you offer different coating finishes for each colour.

You can find finish prices from:

Quote & Cut → Secondary Processes → Powder Coating → Colours and finish prices

Available finish levels #

Quote & Cut includes four finish levels:

  • Textured.
  • Matte 30±5.
  • Semi Glossy 60±5.
  • Glossy 80±5.

These finish levels are built into the plugin.

You set availability by entering or leaving blank the price for each colour and finish combination.

Textured #

Use Textured for powder coatings with a textured surface finish.

Enter a price per kg in the Textured column for each colour where this finish is available.

Matte 30±5 #

Use Matte 30±5 for matte powder coatings.

Enter a price per kg in the Matte 30±5 column for each colour where this finish is available.

Semi Glossy 60±5 #

Use Semi Glossy 60±5 for semi-gloss powder coatings.

Enter a price per kg in the Semi Glossy 60±5 column for each colour where this finish is available.

Glossy 80±5 #

Use Glossy 80±5 for glossy powder coatings.

Enter a price per kg in the Glossy 80±5 column for each colour where this finish is available.

How finish availability works #

A finish is available for a colour only when that colour has a price entered for that finish.

Example:

ColourTexturedMatte 30±5Semi Glossy 60±5Glossy 80±5
RAL 900512.0010.0011.50

In this example, customers can select:

  • Textured.
  • Matte 30±5.
  • Glossy 80±5.

They cannot select Semi Glossy 60±5 for this colour because the price is blank.

Finish prices are per kg #

Finish prices are entered as price per kg of powder.

Quote & Cut estimates the powder required using the coated area and coverage rate, then applies the selected finish price.

Why different finishes can have different prices #

Different finishes may have different powder costs, availability, setup requirements, or supplier pricing.

Use separate prices when the cost differs by finish.

Customer selection #

On the frontend quote form, customers first choose the powder colour, then choose an available finish level.

The finish dropdown is filtered based on the selected colour.

Testing finish levels #

Before going live, test:

  • A colour with all finish prices filled in.
  • A colour with only one finish available.
  • A colour with some finish prices blank.
  • A disabled colour.
  • A new custom colour.

Confirm the frontend only shows valid finish options.
