If both anti-corrosion and wear resistance are required, polyurethane primer and epoxy primer can be used together: first apply epoxy primer as an anti-corrosion layer, and then apply polyurethane primer or topcoat to improve wear resistance and anti-aging performance.

If the ship is docked in a port, swamp or near a marine biological breeding area for a long time, the hull may be at risk of a large number of marine organisms attaching. In this case, antifouling paint can effectively prevent the attachment of marine organisms, reduce the underwater friction of the hull, and avoid the formation of biofilms.

Depending on the coating requirements and the protection needs of the metal surface, the dry film thickness of water-based metallic paint is usually between 25-80 microns. The recommended coating thickness for most standard products is around 50 microns.

Uses of protective enamel paint: ● Industrial equipment protection 1. Chemical equipment 2. Power plant equipment 3. Oil and gas equipment ● Building and infrastructure protection 1. Steel structure building 2. Municipal facilities ● Household and daily necessities protection 1. Home appliances 2. Interior decoration ● Transportation protection 1. Cars and motorcycles 2. Ships and water vehicles.

Self-polishing antifouling paint is a special coating that gradually polishes and releases antifouling active substances through chemical reactions with seawater, thereby preventing the attachment of marine organisms. Unlike hard antifouling paint, self-polishing antifouling paint will gradually consume during use, keeping the surface of the hull smooth and clean.

Usually, paint manufacturers will provide a rough coverage range on the product packaging. For most enamel paints, one gallon of paint (about 3.785 liters) can cover an area of ​​300 to 400 square feet under ideal conditions, which is about 27.87 to 37.16 square meters.

Oil-based paint performs better in terms of UV resistance, chemical resistance, and long-term weather resistance. It is suitable for cars that need to be exposed to severe weather conditions for a long time, especially vehicles parked outdoors.

Heavyweight acrylic and regular acrylic have the same basic ingredients, mainly composed of acrylic polymer emulsion, pigments, fillers and additives, so from a chemical point of view, they are compatible. There will be no obvious chemical reaction after mixing the two, nor will it cause stratification or separation.

According to the different ingredients and construction methods, the types of road marking paint can be divided into: hot melt marking paint, solvent marking paint, water-based marking paint, and two-component marking paint.

Before calculating the amount of paint you need, you first need to understand the coverage of epoxy floor paint. Generally speaking, epoxy floor paint covers approximately 150 to 200 square feet per gallon, depending on the type of paint, thickness, and application method. To ensure the best results, two coats of paint are usually recommended.
