Why do some metal surfaces need to be painted?

When I passed by the decoration site and saw the decoration workers spraying paint on the doors, railings and furniture, I couldn't help but think, is the purpose of this kind of painting for beauty or protection? This reminds me of machined products. If the post-processing process of paint spraying is performed on them, what benefits will it bring to the products?

 

The use of spray paint in decoration may pursue two effects: beauty and protection. First, applying a coat of paint can give your items a more attractive appearance and enhance the look of your overall decor. Secondly, paint, as a coating, can effectively prevent doors, railings, furniture, etc. from being polluted and scratched during daily use, thereby extending their service life.

 

For machined products, spray paint also offers a range of advantages. First of all, the paint film can enhance the appearance of the product and give it a better visual effect. Secondly, the paint layer is a method to protect metal from oxidative corrosion, because there are many corrosion factors in the surrounding environment, mainly including chemical corrosion, electrochemical corrosion, corrosion caused by several physical factors, or the combined effect of the above corrosion. Spray painting on metal surfaces is a very important means of maintaining metal anti-corrosion. Prevent the product surface from corrosion, oxidation, scratches and other factors, thereby maintaining the quality and life of the product.

 

How to paint metal without leaving brush marks? That certainly depends on correct painting techniques.

1. Paint horizontally: Try to paint horizontally, which will help reduce the formation of brush marks.

2. Avoid over-painting: When painting, avoid applying too much paint to prevent the paint from flowing down and forming brush marks.

3. Keep wet edges: Be sure to keep wet edges, that is, make sure the paint is moist when painting adjacent areas. This will help reduce over-dried edges and brush marks.

4. Use a paint bucket: Pour paint into a paint bucket instead of dipping paint directly into the bucket. This helps to better control the amount of paint and reduces the possibility of over-painting.

5. Avoid overlap: Try to avoid overlap when painting to ensure a smooth transition for each stroke. Overlapping can cause paint to pool and create brush marks.

6.Apply as many times as needed: If a more even coating is required, apply multiple coats to ensure each layer is fully dry.

 

Some people say: Spray paint likes oil painting, are both creative processes that require the dedication of the artist or craftsman. Through the application of patience, care and skill, it is possible to create works that are pleasing to the eye. Do you think so too?
