Powdercoat peeling

++++++

I had an automatic pool cover installed last fall and the coating is peeling off the aluminum track and box cover as though it was painted....the finish looks different from the powdercoating finish on my patio furniture and I don't understand why.

First thing powder coating peeloff has folowing main reason:-
1.Poor pretreatment(Chromatizing prefered for Aluminium object), it is not properly degreased.
2.Poor powder coating baking that means under baking.
3.Their may be powder problem.
Second thing when powder is peeling thats why it is finish not look like o.k.
