Understanding the Different Coating Application Techniques 

Adding a protective coat to a piece of machinery or other product can be a great option and a way to protect any item. When you are looking to protect a product with an industrial coat, you will find there are different techniques that can be followed to apply different materials to whatever you need. These techniques tend to have different advantages based on your type of product, time and budgetary constraints, and other factors.

Spray Coating

One of the most common types of coating for industrial coats is spray coating for chemours teflon finishes and other final products. When using this method, the professional will use a spray tool and nozzle that will release the coat evenly across the product. This method is available for a variety of different types of paints, primers, as well as other and more durable types of materials. This can be an efficient way to cover a large surface area evenly. It is commonly used for both industrial and automotive equipment and machines, which will benefit from the even and efficient coverage.

Dip Coating

If you have a small product or machine that requires coating, dip coating can be a great option. These Teflon FEP coatings, as well as other types of coatings, are great for smaller items that can be fully submerged into a container. When completing this process, the item will be dipped and held in the coat for a short period of time. It will then be removed and dripped dry. This is great for smaller and intricate parts that require complete coverage. It can be an easier way to get the coating into harder-to-reach areas.

Roll Coating

Another good option for large and flat surfaces is roll coating. Roll coating is similar in nature to using a roller for standard paint. This can be a great option for surfaces that need an even coat across it. The process can be simple and efficient, which can end up being more cost-effective than other options as well. This is often used when manufacturing metal sheets, plastic sheets, and other products that are produced in bulk.

Powder Coating

When it comes to industrial and metal surfaces, another great option to consider is powder coating. This is a durable and environmentally friendly option that is applied as a dry powder to metal surfaces. When the metal and powder are then heated, it will create a very durable and protective layer. An added advantage of this process is that it does not use any VOCs and will offer a long-lasting finish. Dry powder coating is commonly used in the production of metal furnishings as well as a range of auto parts and supplies. 

Electrostatic Coating

A form of coating that is growing in popularity is electrostatic coating. This uses an electric charge that will attract coating materials to the grounded surface. While it sounds complicated compared to other options, the process can be incredibly precise and will minimize waste. This can make it one of the greenest and most efficient options. It is often an option for smaller and more intricate parts that require precision, such as auto and electrical components.
