Why Does Caliper Painting Take 3 Days?
1 Answers
Because caliper painting requires applying three coats of primer and four coats of topcoat to the caliper. Each coat is baked in a dust-free, temperature-controlled oven, making the process quite intricate, hence the 3-day duration. Below are the differences between baked painting and spray painting: 1. Process: Baked painting involves applying three coats of primer and four coats of topcoat to the base material, with each coat baked in a dust-free, temperature-controlled oven; spray painting involves applying putty to the base material, then spraying paint over it and allowing it to air dry naturally. 2. Paint film: Baked painting results in smooth edges, uniform color, even paint film, and rich color; spray painting results in rough edges, lighter color than the door panel, uneven paint film, and less rich color. 3. Texture: Baked painting produces door panels with a smooth surface, free of texture or orange peel effect; spray painting produces door panels with texture, not smooth, and exhibiting an orange peel effect.
