WHY USE EPR FOR YOUR METAL PAINTING?
EPR is the nation’s largest electrostatic painting company for many reasons. See below for a few reasons to trust EPR with your project.
- After a review of your project, which may include a site visit, Tommy and Jack will determine a surface preparation procedure and high performance coating system to achieve the highest quality and on time completion of your project.
- Our in-house trained crews will perform the preparation process and electrostatic painting services at your location in the least disruptive way possible.
- EPR uses the Ransburg #2 Process gun for a majority of our applications. Some of the benefits we can pass through to our clients with this specialized equipment include:
Benefits of the Electrostatic Process
The coatings' 95% or greater transfer efficiency minimizes overspray and allows a factory equivalent sprayed finish to be applied on the job site. Other spray equipment has only a 50-60% transfer efficiency, which in comparison, wastes a lot of paint and money versus the Ransburg #2 process.
Many OEM-equivalent low-VOC paint coatings can be applied electrostatically, including two-component epoxies, polyurethanes, and fluoro-polymers. These coatings chemically "bake" to provide a durable finish without ovens to "force cure" the paint. Plus, ovens can't be located at job sites.
The electrostatic spray process provides a uniform film thickness and consistent coating performance. The static charge creates a "wrap around" effect providing improved paint coverage. Get in touch with us today to learn more!
Typical Electrostatic Applications
ELECTROSTATIC PAINTING AT YOUR LOCATION OR OURS
When considering electrostatic painting at your facility, the EPR rep will most likely want to perform a site visit. They can discuss the following items and more with you before, after or in place of that visit. These items help EPR provide accurate pricing, the best coatings for your project and scheduling the work.
For interior electrostatic painting such as – Lockers, Elevator Doors, Stair Railings and more:
1. Ventilation- Can the building’s ventilation system run continuously during, and for appx 4 hours after painting is completed?
2. Lighting- Is the space where the electrostatic painting will take place well lit (such as standard office lighting) or shall EPR bring our supplemental lights?
3. Work Space- Your EPR rep will likely ask to see the area that the electrostatic painting will take place to make sure there is good access to the items being painted. If that can’t take place, your rep will go over this specifically for your project.
4. Power- Most standard building 110v outlets are adequate for the portable electrostatic equipment and the EPR rep should ask if there are outlets within 100’ of the work area. If not, the EPR crews can bring generators.
5. Existing Coating- The EPR rep may want to test and inspect the existing finish for to help insure compatibility with the high performance coatings that are used in the electrostatic painting process.
6. Paint Color and Finish- The EPR rep can provide samples of your preferred color and will go over the various sheens available. EPR can apply metallic coatings and can go over those options upon request.
7. Other Trades- Please let your EPR rep know if there will be other work being performed at or near the same dates and areas where our crews will be working so a schedule that works for all can be determined.
For exterior electrostatic painting such as- Store Fronts, Playground Equipment, Ornamental and Chain Link Fence, Light Poles, HVAC and Generator Housings, etc:
Your EPR rep will likely want to visit the site and see the items to be electrostatically painted in part to see and possibly test the existing finish along with items 3, 4, 5 and 6 from the interior section above.
EPR Shop Painting:
For items that can be transported to an EPR Paint Shop:
1.) EPR charges less for same items in our paint shop than on site as we don’t have to mobilize our crews and our paint shops are already set up for painting. The savings will offset some or possibly all of your transportation costs.
2.) Interior painted items brought to an EPR paint shop means you don’t have to deal with your building ventilation or in some cases staff at your location while the work is being performed.
3.) EPR shops have a wider variety of High Performance Coatings and application methods than painting at your site. EPR paint shops can also apply paint more to than metal items. Discuss this with the rep.
4.) EPR can handle protecting the painted items for you with a variety of options including skidding for transport. Discuss this with the rep.
