Paints for technical applications

Among the different types of paint, the technical paint has mainly practical uses, much more than aesthetic. These technological paints are generally used by professionals. Their function is to meet a specific characteristic need.
In the industrial field, or on certain parts of motor vehicles or brake calipers, there is a need for paints with the ability to resist high temperatures. This is a technical need to which paint provides a solution.

Technical paints

Let's take another example of a need for retro-reflective signage to be affixed to outdoor equipment on which no conventional adhesive tape can be applied : it is in such a case that a paint can provide an answer.
Technical paint always has one or more specific intrinsic properties to meet a requirement. Let's see the different types of technical paints and 2K paints.

High temperature

The high temperature paint allows a particular resistance, without yellowing and without cracking, to extreme temperature conditions. The number of colors in their palette is limited of course to pigments that are able to withstand temperatures of 350 or even 700° C.

Retroreflective paints

Used in road safety, retroreflective paints are technical products that use glass bead technology. They represent a retroreflective alternative that is used to reflect light back to its source.

Protective paints

All paints provide protection, which is the primary purpose of a paint of course. However, protective paints are much more specific and provide a higher and more specific degree of protection. High temperature paint, for example, protects brake calipers that can heat up to 300°C. Water-repellent paint specializes in waterproofing against liquids, and water-repellent varnish protects against ignition. Another one, the anti-wave paint constitutes an electromagnetic shield against the pollution of the wi-fi waves.
