Metallic paint is a kind of chemical paint with metallic texture, which is commonly used for the surface finishing of high-end products, such as household appliances, electronic appliances, etc. Due to the poor wear resistance of some metals, and the good wear resistance of some metal coatings, it can not only be used as a protection, but also has a beautiful decorative effect, so it is more and more widely used.
Metallic coatings are generally realized by air spraying, but before the coating is applied, in order to better ensure its performance, it is often necessary to carry out different performance tests. This article is a part of the instrument scheme for the performance testing of metal coatings, and several imported high-end brands are recommended. equipment.
