How is Spray Finishing Done?
Spray painting is commonly known as Factory applied finish or Lacquering. Spray paint is applied to
material using high pressure air, mixed with paint particles, allowing to achieve consistent and smooth
finish throughout the material. The difference between traditional brush painting and spray finishing -
No BRUSH Marks. Spray paints are more durable and provides even coating on any surface whether it is
flat board or moulded panel, all surfaces will receive even amount of paint layer.

How We Do It?
All parts before receiving any type of coating need to undergo preparation process. This involves edge banding as well as preparation sanding. We have latest in Technology Wide belt sander which allows us to calibrate and finish sand all parts before applying primers or clear lacquers. Calibration of parts eliminates any surface imperfections. After priming or base lacquering all parts are being sanded again to receive final coats of spray paint or clear lacquers. High gloss finish requires burnishing. This is quite lengthy process but the results are perfection of Mirror effect gloss.
Spray Types & Sheene Levels
Primer Exterior
Before
After
Exterior Primer is use for materials to be exposed to Exterior conditions or in high moisture concentration areas. We use Exterior Micro Porous Primer which is water based material designed to allow material to breath but does not allow the moisture to penetrate the material.
Primer Interior
Before
After
Interior primer is designed for dry interior conditions. We use PU (Polyurethane) high build up primer which is ideal for MDF and all other materials. Once edges are sealed with this primer, wood fibres are sealed and further coats of paint do not get soaked. Single Coat of paint will be enough for final coating.
