Oil painting is one of the more extensive treatment processes for the surface of prototype models by prototype processing factories. The effects of oil painting on the prototype include matte, semi matte, and glossy, which can be applied to various colors, textures, wire drawing, leather, etc. Why does the prototype model need oil painting and what are the benefits of oil painting?
Oil painting has the following benefits for the prototype:
1. Can cover small surface defects of workpieces;
2. By oil painting, various colors, glossiness, appearance effects, and tactile sensations can be obtained;
3. Enhanced the hardness and friction resistance of the prototype surface;
Overall, products that have been colored have a good appearance effect and can increase the friction performance of the product, protecting the internal structure of the parts from easy wear and tear. However, it is difficult to color some prototypes, such as those made of stainless steel and PP materials, as they do not stick firmly after coloring and fade with friction.
Metalstar prototype often uses an air compression spray method when processing the prototype. What is the air compression spray method? Air compression spray is the process of using air compression to create an airflow. When the airflow passes through the paint chamber, it brings the paint into the suction tube and sprays it out through the paint nozzle, forming a mist like oil layer. When this oil layer is sprayed onto the surface of the hand board, it will be evenly distributed and the surface glossiness will also be good.
