Paints and coatings not only add color to surfaces but also provide protection, ensuring long-lasting and durable results. However, choosing the wrong paint and coating can lead to problems such as premature wear, fading, and deformation. Therefore, there are some critical points to consider when choosing industrial paints and coatings.
1. Selecting the Product Suitable for the Purpose of Use
One of the most important criteria in paint selection is the conditions the surface will be exposed to. For example:
Epoxy or polyurethane paints with high corrosion resistance should be preferred for heavy industry and steel structures .
Since durability and aesthetics are at the forefront in the automotive industry, acrylic paints give better results.
Water-based or solvent-based coatings that are resistant to water and weather conditions should be used for interior and exterior coatings .
2. Paint and Primer Compatibility
For paint to adhere well to a surface, it must be used with a suitable primer. Primer smooths the surface, creating a more solid base for the paint. Using the right primer, especially on metal and wood surfaces, ensures longer lasting paint.
3. Pay Attention to Environmental Factors
Environmental factors play a significant role in paint and coating selection. For example:
In humid environments, water-based or epoxy coatings should be preferred.
Special heat-resistant formulas should be used on surfaces exposed to high temperatures and chemical effects .
4. Application Techniques
The performance of a paint depends not only on its quality but also on the application process. Advanced technology applications such as electrostatic wet paint increase paint efficiency, resulting in more uniform and durable coatings.
