LIQUID COATING

Having a variety of liquid painting systems, VML is able to create, reproduce or replicate most finishes.

SPRAY PAINTING

Manual and automated spray painting capabilities. Automated systems include rotary and linear spray processes. Can be used in conjunction with our vacuum metalizing process to produce highly reflective finishes.

FLOWCOATING

  • Paint is washed over parts producing a clean, uniform, glossy film.
  • Automated handling of parts and recycling of paint results in lower unit costs as compared to spray painting.
  • Appropriate for parts having complex geometries.
  • Used to apply translucent base coats and top coats in the metalizing process.

DYE DIPPING

  • Used in conjunction with our metalizing process, dye dipping produces brilliant, colored-metallic finishes.
  • Capable of producing finishes simulating the appearance of electroplated gold, brass, bronze, chrome, copper, etc.
  • Process appropriate for asymmetric components or parts having complex geometries.

FINISHES

VML's spray painting processes provide a wide range of standard and custom finishes. We can match a customer-supplied finish or combine process and coatings to achieve various visual and aesthetic effects. Able to coat all metals and most plastics.
