Common Issues and Prevention Strategies in Water-based Paint Spraying

2025-03-06

In the last issue, we discussed choosing a water - based furniture paint spraying production line. Now, let's talk about common issues in water - based paint spraying and their solutions.Water - based paint is popular for its environmental friendliness and good painting results. But during application, we must note some key points to get a perfect finish.

 

 

Oil - based Primer and Water - based Topcoat Process

When using an oil - based primer and water - based topcoat, separate the gun pumps and paint buckets for oil - and water - based paints.Moreover, before spraying the water-based paint, the oil-based primer must be completely dry.

The [4 + 4 mode] spraying system has independent pipelines, making cleaning easy.

Environmental Control

When spraying water-based paint, the working environment needs to be well controlled. The temperature and humidity in the drying room and the spray booth have a significant impact on the painting effect. The ideal temperature is 25 - 35°C and humidity around 40%.

The positive pressure air in the wide spray booth can reach 12,000 m³/h, which can achieve the air cleanliness of the topcoat spray booth.

Construction Details

Viscosity is crucial. Too high, the gun may clog; too low, the coating may sag. Adjust viscosity according to the situation. Water - based paint uses water as a solvent, but different products have different mixing ratios. Read the manual carefully. Filter the paint before spraying to remove impurities and ensure a smooth coating.

Following these tips can prevent common problems like swelling, delamination, and ensure the best painting effect.
