There are many types of paints for iron art, and their use, application objects and methods are also different. Here is just a brief introduction to the commonly used coating paints in wrought iron products:
Acrylic
The paint with acrylic resin as the main film-forming material is called acrylic resin paint. Acrylic resin coating has the characteristics of light color, high transparency, color retention, gloss retention, bright and fullness, weather resistance, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, strong adhesion, rigidity and toughness. The main types of acrylic resin coatings include thermosetting acrylic coatings, two-component acrylic coatings, and thermoplastic acrylic coatings. Acrylic resin paint performance: light color, good heat resistance, fast drying, corrosion resistance, bright paint film, hard, good adhesion.
Nitro paint
Nitrocellulose lacquer is made of nitrocellulose as the basic film-forming material, mixed with resin and toughening agent, and then dissolved in an organic mixed solvent. The paint film of nitrocellulose paint dries quickly. It can be dried 10min after construction; the paint film is hard and wear-resistant. After drying, it has sufficient mechanical strength and durability, and can be waxed and polished for easy repair; the paint film has good gloss. However, the solid content of this type of paint is low, the paint film is thin after drying, and multiple applications are required. The performance of nitrocellulose paint: fast drying, high hardness, wear resistance, water resistance, can be polished, easy to repair, not alkali resistant, heat resistant, cold resistant, complex finishing process, high labor intensity in construction, use: used for primer, surface paint.
Polyester paint
Polyester varnish is a high-performance, two-component wood decoration coating. The products are divided into gloss topcoat, semi-matte topcoat, matte topcoat and transparent primer. The products are widely used for decoration and protection of various types of wood and wrought iron surfaces indoors and outdoors. It is easy to use and will not cause yellowing of latex paint walls. It is the material of choice for modern home decoration. Purpose: Suitable for the decoration of wooden furniture factories and various indoor wooden surfaces. The performance of polyester paint: light color, transparent, full and bright paint film, high hardness, corrosion resistance, moisture resistance, solvent resistance, abrasion resistance, gloss retention, good color retention, and a certain degree of heat resistance and temperature resistance
Epoxy paint
Epoxy paint is a coating with epoxy resin as a film-forming material. It is divided into six categories: unesterified epoxy resin paint, esterified epoxy resin paint, water-soluble epoxy electrophoretic paint, epoxy linear paint, epoxy powder paint and cycloaliphatic epoxy resin paint. The outstanding performance of epoxy resin paint is strong adhesion, especially stronger adhesion to metal surfaces, and good chemical resistance. It has good paint film color retention, thermal stability and electrical insulation.
