Introduction to Metallic Paint

Metallic paint , also known as metallic glitter paint, contains fine metal powder (such as aluminum powder, copper powder, etc.) added to its base. After light hits the metal powder, it reflects through an air film. So it looks like the metal is glowing. This metallic glitter paint gives a pleasant, light, and novel feeling. By changing the shape and size of the metal powder, the brightness of the metallic glitter paint film can be controlled; a layer of clear coat is usually applied over metallic paint for protection.

Metallic paint They are usually water-based and solvent-based. Although water-based paints are environmentally friendly, metal powders are unstable in water and air and often deteriorate due to chemical reactions. Therefore, the surface of metal powders used in water-based paints requires special treatment, leading to high prices and limited applications. Currently, metallic paints are mainly solvent-based. Depending on the base resin, solvent-based metallic paints include acrylic metallic paint and fluorocarbon metallic paint.

The main application area for metallic paint is the automotive industry. Spraying metallic paint on the exterior surface of a car not only makes the painted sheet metal surface look more shiny and appealing, but also allows the car's color and even contour to change at different angles due to light refraction. This is also one of the reasons why "metallic paint" is becoming increasingly common, making the entire vehicle look richer and more interesting.

Metallic paint The main features are : tough paint film, strong adhesion, strong UV resistance, corrosion resistance, high fullness, which can comprehensively improve the service life and self-cleaning performance of the coating.

1. Metallic paint can be rolled, sprayed, or brushed, then mixed evenly according to proportion. During spray application, it can be diluted with a special thinner for metallic paints as appropriate.

2. Metallic paint is suitable for various cement mortar plastered surfaces, concrete surfaces, plasterboards, wooden boards, fiberboards, etc., but before application, ensure the base surface is firm, dry, clean, free of loose dust, and pH < 10.
