Hi everyone. Oli Brunton here. Today we’re gonna be talking about that nice, mint green finish that’s on every Hustler machine. This high-quality  coating is the most durable in the industry that’s why we call it Armacote®. Super scratch resistant, anti-rust and it’s solvent free, meaning it’s better for the environment. And this is the crazy part: It’s powder! And this is how it’s done: All of Hustler’s machines are wheeled into the sandblasting booth, where they are sand-blasted down to a white metal. And then, it’s air-blasted to get rid of all debris, and the key profile is tested. Next step: powder-coating. Then it’s baked in a state of art, temperature-controlled oven. The whole process is so efficient, a part ordered in the morning can be shipped out that same day. And the best part about Armacote® is resale value. A quick water blast, and your machine looks brand new – even years down the track. Years of in-field testing on our hardest-wearing components, helped Hustler create the most durable finish
