(I) Prevention and control of common “paint issues”
 
“Paint issues” can be divided into paint film defects from coating and storage after coating. 
 
1. Sagging (Running, flowing and dropping) 
 
As a common defect in coating works, sagging appears in primer, intermediate paint, finish paint or strip paint and its symptoms include flaked paint film dropping and tear stain. See the table below for its causes and solutions. 

Causes

Precautions and Solutions

Construction is improper, a spray gun is too close to the surface of a painted object and gun moving speed is too slow 

Improve operators’ skills and control painting distance of various work-piece and gun moving speed 

Primary paint film is too thick 

Control paint film thickness according to the process requirements

Coating has low viscosity or too many diluents are added, causing extremely low painting viscosity 

Control construction viscosity of coating strictly and adopt supporting diluent to regulate viscosity

Painting pressure is too high and spray gun moving speed is too slow (flaked flowing) 

Control pressure to qualified range and maintain proper gun moving speed 

Interval between wet-on-wet painting is too short

Comply with construction process strictly and guarantee sufficient drying time 

Surface of a painted object is uneven, surface treatment is poor or oil stain exists 

Guarantee surface treatment quality 

Paint film is too smooth 

Grind before painting strip paint

Spray gun has low pressure and nozzle has big caliber 

Spray gun pressure and nozzle caliber shall meet process requirements


2. Whitened Film 

Causes

Precautions and Solutions

Construction has too much humidity and diluent has extremely rapid volatilizing speed

In case of too much humidity, construction shall not be conducted, the painting room shall be heated before construction or desiccant shall be adopted for prevention and control. Diluent shall be prepared from organic solvent with high boiling point and slow volatilizing speed

Painting equipment contains too much moisture 

Remove moisture in the painting equipment 

Temperature of the painted object is below the room temperature 

Heat the painted object work-piece before coating to make its temperature above the environment temperature 

Coating or diluent contains moisture

Coating or diluent used shall contain no moisture 

 

In case of a whitened phenomenon, finish paint shall be ground before painting it again to eliminate the phenomenon

 

3. Poor Covering Power and Exposed Base
 

Causes

Precautions and Solutions

Coating selected has poor covering power

Select coating with good covering power for construction or improve pigment of colored paint

Coating has sediment and has not been mixed sufficiently before utilization 

Coating shall be mixed sufficiently before utilization

Painting is too thin or painting times is too few

Painting thickness and passes shall meet coating requirements 

Construction has extremely low viscosity or primer and finish paint have big color difference 

Regulate proper construction viscosity; colors of primer and finish paint shall be similar

 

In case of exposed base, it can be covered by another finish paint
