Characteristics of Coatings Applicable |
Coating |
Use of tools or equipment |
Main strengths and weaknesses |
||
Drying speed |
Viscosity |
Variety |
||||
Brush painting |
Dryness is slow |
Small plastic |
Oily paint Phenolic paint Alkyd paint |
General components and buildings, plumbing, etc. |
Brush |
Less investment, simple construction method, suitable for the shape and size of the coating; the disadvantages are poor decoration, low construction efficiency |
Hand roll coating |
Dryness is slow |
Small plastic |
Oily paint Phenolic paint Alkyd paint |
Components and management of general large planes, etc. |
Roller |
Less investment, simple construction method, suitable for large area coating; disadvantages of the same brush painting method |
Dip coating |
Proper drying, good leveling, moderate drying speed |
Good thixotropy |
synthetic resin coatings |
Small components, equipment and mechanical components |
Lacquer tank, centrifuge and vacuum equipment |
The equipment investment is less, the construction method is simple, the paint loss is less, is suitable for the construction complex component; the disadvantage is that the flow flatness is not very good, has the flow hanging phenomenon, the pollution phenomenon, the solvent is volatile |
Air spraying |
Volatile quickly and dry moderately |
Low viscosity |
Nitro paint, rubber paint, building vinyl paint, polyurethane paint, etc. |
Large components and equipment and piping |
Spray gun, air compressor, oil/water separator, etc. |
The equipment investment is small, the construction method is more complex, the construction efficiency is higher than the painting method; the disadvantage is that the consumption dose is large, the pollution phenomenon is easy to cause the fire |
Fog spray |
Paint with only high boiling point solvent |
High nonvolatile, thixotropy |
Raw and high non-volatile coatings |
Large steel structures, bridges, pipelines, vehicles, ships, etc. |
High pressure airless spray gun, air compressor, etc. |
The equipment investment is big, the construction method is more complex, the efficiency is higher than the air spraying method, can obtain the thick coating; the disadvantage is also to lose part of the coating, the decoration is poor |
