Coatings and varnishes are two different concepts, although they may often be used confusingly in everyday parlance. Generally speaking, the difference between paint and paint is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Different definitions: coating (coating) usually refers to a material coated on the surface, which can include paint, varnish, coating, antirust paint, waterproof coating, etc.; and paint (paint) is a specific type of material. Paint, usually composed of pigments, resins, solvents, etc., is used to decorate and protect the surface of objects.
Different composition: The composition of the coating can be varied, and different types of coatings may contain different components, such as resins, pigments, solvents, fillers, etc. The composition of paint usually includes pigments, resins, solvents, additives, etc., wherein resin is the main component of paint.
The scope of application is different: the application range of coatings is very wide, and can be used in many fields such as construction, automobiles, ships, machinery, electrical appliances, furniture, etc.; while the main application field of paint is to decorate and protect the surface of objects, such as construction, furniture, automobiles, artwork etc.
Different methods of use: the method of use of paint can vary from type to type, and some paints require specific tools and techniques to be applied, such as spraying, rolling, etc.; the use of paint is relatively simple, and tools such as brushes and rollers can be used construction.
To sum up, paint is a broader concept, and paint is one of the specific types. The types and applications of coatings are very wide, while the application range of paints is relatively narrow, mainly used to decorate and protect the surface of objects.
