Spray painting using a special hydrodynamic unit is a modern, fast and efficient method that is perfect for large surfaces such as walls, facades, ceilings, as well as in the automotive, maritime and industrial sectors. It is not only the speed that translates into the pace of work – about 4 square meters per minute – but also excellent coverage and the quality of the final finish. However, it is worth noting that appropriate skills and experience are required to use this technology.
How does Spray Painting Work?
To put it simply, spray painting involves spraying paint under high pressure in the form of microscopic drops using a special device, especially the so-called spray gun.
To start spray painting, you need:
- Spray gun: This is a device in which the selected paint, varnish or varnish is crushed into microscopic drops under the influence of compressed air. There are different types of guns, allowing you to tailor them to a specific task.
- Compressor (compressor): Its power depends on the type of painting. To work on larger surfaces, such as walls, facades or cars, you need a compressor with higher power and a tank of appropriate capacity.
- Pressure line, pressure regulator and filter: These components connect the gun to the compressor. The filter and pressure regulation guarantee precision and quality of painting.
- Paint: Before painting, the paint must be properly prepared. This includes shaking the paint, adjusting its viscosity according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, filtering the paint to remove contaminants, and loading the gun.
What can you spray paint with?
Spray painting is versatile and can be used for various types of paints such as: oil-resin, bituminous, alkyl, chlorinated rubber, vinyl and polyvinyl, epoxy, epoxy-bitumen, polyurethane, zinc silicate, acrylic.
Benefits of Spray Painting
Spray painting has many advantages, including:
- Speed: This is an ideal method for covering large surfaces in a short time.
- Perfect finish: Guarantees a smooth and even surface, which translates into aesthetics and durability of painting.
- Saving time and paint: Thanks to the precise spraying of paint on the surface, the loss of painting material is minimized.
How to start spray painting?
It requires some practice, but a beginner can learn it with the right instructions. The basic step is to prepare the paint, connect the spray gun to the compressor, adjust the pressure and properly guide the gun while painting. After finishing work, it is important to thoroughly clean the device.
Is it profitable to invest in spray painting?
User reviews indicate positive experiences with spray painting. If this method is used correctly, it allows you to achieve excellent results in a short time. That’s why spray painting is an increasingly popular option in renovation and construction projects.
