What is liquid coating?

There are four basic ingredient classes found in all liquid coatings: binders, pigments, carriers and additives. In combination, these components create a liquid technology that dries to a film, providing protection and aesthetics. Each of these four components is integral to the coating composition. //www.dcorian.com/articles/liquid-organic-coatings

What liquid coating is best for my operation?

An understanding of the composition and curing process of coatings provides insight for making a coating selection, helping finishers match the product to their performance, regulation and application requirements. The first decision in coating selection is often about the general type of technology preferred: solvent-borne, high-solids and waterborne. //www.dcorian.com/articles/choosing-the-right-liquid-coating-application

What is the best way to adjust viscosity in my paint?

Most coaters don’t think about the fact that adding solvent to reduce the viscosity of their coating is fundamentally changing the formulation of their paint. Instead, we might try: Create a staging area to get the paint to the right temperature before we bring it to the line Develop summer/winter blends Install paint heaters //www.dcorian.com/articles/adjusting-viscosity-in-liquid-coatings
