Aesthetics and Functionality At Armstrong

Paint Application Facilities

Enhancing Products with Expert Spray Painting of Metals and Plastics

Aesthetics and functionality are crucial considerations for almost all Armstrong projects. Spray painting is a versatile solution for enhancing the visual appeal, durability and corrosion resistance of metal and plastic components.

Benefits of Spray Paint Application Facilities in Manufacturing:

1. Aesthetic Enhancement: Spray painting enables the Armstrong team to elevate the visual appeal of products. Whether it’s a glossy finish on a metal component or a vibrant colour on a plastic or composite part, spray painting allows for endless design possibilities.

2. Corrosion Protection: Metals are prone to corrosion, which can significantly affect their lifespan and performance. By applying specialized coatings through spray painting, we can create a protective barrier that shields metals from environmental elements and significantly extends their usability.

3. Brand Identity and Customization: Spray painting enables Armstrong to align customer’s products with their brand identity. Custom colors, logos and designs can be effortlessly incorporated onto metals and plastics, allowing us to establish a unique visual identity that resonates with the target audience.

4. Durability and Longevity: Coatings applied through spray painting enhance the durability of both metal and plastic components. These coatings can withstand abrasion, impact and exposure to harsh conditions, ensuring products maintain their quality and appearance over time.

The Spray Painting Process

Preparation & Technique Selection

The Spray Painting Process

1. Surface Preparation:
Proper surface preparation is vital to achieving optimal spray painting results. The surface of the product is cleaned, degreased and, if necessary, treated with primers to ensure excellent paint adherence and longevity.

2. Material Compatibility:
The Armstrong team use different types of paints and coatings which are designed for specific metals,  plastics and composite materials. The project team consider material compatibility to ensure the selected coatings adhere effectively and deliver the desired results.

3. Application Techniques:
Spray painting is carried out at Armstrong using various techniques, such as airless spraying, electrostatic spraying and powder coating. Each technique has its own advantages and is suited for specific applications. Our experts will help determine the most suitable technique for the desired outcome.

4. Quality Control:
The Armstrong Paint Application Facilities see the implementation of rigorous quality control measures throughout the spray painting process. Regular inspections, adherence to standards and proper curing procedures are essential to achieving consistent and high-quality results.

Expertise & Environmental Considerations

Spray Painting Best Practices

Best Practices for Successful Spray Painting:

1. Expertise Matters:
Armstrong has a team of skilled spray painting professionals who are crucial to ensuring proper application techniques, material handling and adherence to safety guidelines.

2. Environmental Considerations:
Spray painting often involves the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Armstrong have the proper ventilation systems in place, and choose low-VOC or water-based paints to minimise any potential environmental impact.

3. Equipment Maintenance:
Regular maintenance of spray painting equipment is carried out, which is essential to prevent defects, ensuring even coating distribution and extending the life of the equipment.

4. Testing and Prototyping:
Before full-scale production goes ahead, our team will conduct testing and prototyping to fine-tune the spray painting process and confirm that the desired visual and functional outcomes can be achieved.
