2. Efficient, Cost-Effective Process

Our electrostatic painting method is incredibly efficient, with up to 95% of the paint sprayed adhering to the target surface. This reduces waste, clean-up time, and overall costs.

What Is Electrostatic Painting?

Electrostatic painting is a highly efficient and precise method for applying paint to metal surfaces. Unlike traditional spray painting, the electrostatic process uses a positively charged paint that is attracted to the negatively charged surface of the metal. This creates a magnetic-like effect, ensuring even paint distribution with minimal overspray.

This method is ideal for a wide range of applications, including industrial equipment, machinery, furniture, and more. The result is a smooth, durable, and professional finish that mimics the quality of a factory-applied coating.

Benefits of Electrostatic Painting

Our electrostatic painting services offer numerous advantages, including:

• Spray Booth Quality On-Site: Achieve a flawless, factory-quality finish without the need to transport equipment or furniture to an off-site location.

• Maximum Efficiency: With up to 95% transfer efficiency, electrostatic painting minimizes product waste and clean-up time.
  

• Cost Savings: The reduced paint waste and labor time translate into lower costs for our customers.
  

• Eco-Friendly: The precision of the electrostatic process reduces overspray, making it an environmentally friendly option.
  

• Durability: High-performance coatings provide long-lasting protection against wear, corrosion, and environmental factors.
  

• Professional Appearance: Restoring older or used equipment with a fresh electrostatic coating improves the overall appearance of your workspace, boosting employee morale and creating a positive impression for clients.

Interior Coatings

• Two-Component Polyamide Epoxies: Known for their exceptional adhesion, chemical resistance, and durability, these coatings are perfect for interior surfaces that require heavy-duty protection.

Exterior Coatings

• Catalyzed Acrylic Urethanes: These coatings provide superior weather resistance, UV ray protection, and excellent gloss retention, ensuring that exterior surfaces look great for years to come.

Purchasing new equipment can be expensive. With our electrostatic painting process, businesses in Chicago and across the country can restore older or used equipment to like-new condition at a fraction of the cost.

A fresh coat of paint not only enhances the professional appearance of your workspace but also improves employee morale by creating a clean, well-maintained environment. When employees and machine operators see equipment that looks new and well cared for, they take greater pride in their work and are more likely to maintain the equipment properly.
