<p>Herein disclosed is a method of electrostatically coating a composite object comprising: a) Pretreating a surface of the composite object with a composition to induce conductivity; b) Applying a charge to the object after surface pretreatment; and c) Electrostatically applying a coating material to the object. In an embodiment, the method comprises cleaning the surface of the composite object prior to pretreating. Also described is a composite downhole tool pretreated with a surface pretreatment composition and electrostatically coated. In an embodiment, the composite downhole tool comprises bridge or frac plug mandrels, wedges, sleeves, noses, cones, mule shoes, extrusion limiters, slips, baffles, landing seats, frac balls, wireline tools, housings for measurement-while-drilling, housings for logging-while-drilling, or tubular parts.</p> |
