How to spray paint

and all the work steps that go with it.

Everyone who learned the job of the painter wanted to start here immediately. At the paint shop, – standing in the booth and doing great paint jobs that you usually saw in movies and on TV. However, like everywhere else, it is also true in painting, first start small.

In practice, I always say today: „First crawl, then walk“. I, too, am a friend of „throwing the apprentice in at the deep end“, but with caution. There are so many parameters to consider in a coating that can lead to the result, or cause serious errors. At this point, you should have understood some basics.

What else do we need to consider when coating? For example, we need to know how thick to apply the material. Then, in order to have the material stand up nicely on the surface, we should also know what to look for in the spraying technique. On the following pages I hope you will find what you are looking for.

You will also find instructions on how to coat different substrates under the category „Painting“. But it is also important, before we paint, how to get the right color quickly and efficiently. You can find some information on this in the color matching section.
