What is self-painting?

Self-spraying, that is, aerosol paint, is a kind of paint that is convenient to spray after the paint is processed by a special method and filled with high pressure. It is also called manual spraying. Aluminum paste is also called chrome paste and galvanized paste in the self-painting industry. Self-painting requires good leveling and strong hiding power; excellent gloss and color retention performance; spray rate above 96%; matching with appropriate primers, good adhesion; good chemical resistance and water resistance. The applicability is more extensive than paint, and in the future development of coatings, self-painting will have a place. Due to the special nature of its packaging, self-painting is generally tested for aging resistance. After the paint is placed in a jar, it is required to test its performance at 50°C for one week.
