Airless applies pressure to the paint with air and ejects only the paint, while air spray applies air to the paint and ejects both the paint and air together.

"Airless Spray and Air Spray" The most widely used painting method is painting with a "spray gun." Both airless spray and air spray are types of spray guns. Products painted with a spray gun include vehicles such as cars, motorcycles, and boats, large infrastructures like bridges and transmission towers, and many everyday items like furniture and appliances. By utilizing the force of compressed air, the paint is atomized into a fine mist and sprayed. These two methods differ significantly in how they atomize the paint. "Airless Spray" applies pressure to the paint using air and discharges only the paint. "Air Spray" applies air to the paint and discharges both the paint and air together.

basic information

The choice of painting method is determined by the size of the product to be painted and the required film thickness. "Airless spray painting" is suitable for large products or situations where high corrosion resistance is needed in harsh environments. "Air spray painting" is suitable for small products or cases where aesthetic appearance is prioritized over corrosion resistance. It is important to clearly understand the characteristics required for the painting purpose and to select the appropriate painting method. **Characteristics of Airless Spray** Advantages: - "Can accommodate many types of paints, including high-viscosity ones." - "Can apply thick coats." - "Less paint overspray, resulting in better painting efficiency." Disadvantages: - "The painting equipment is high-cost." - "Requires skill to achieve a clean finish due to coarse paint particles." - "Higher discharge volume can lead to drips and other painting defects, requiring skill." **Characteristics of Air Spray** Advantages: - "Fine paint particles make it relatively easy to achieve a clean finish." - "Painting equipment and facilities are low-cost." Disadvantages: - "Poor paint adhesion efficiency leads to low painting efficiency." - "Paint viscosity must be diluted to lower levels, preventing thick coats." - "Simultaneous discharge of air and paint results in significant overspray, with most being wasted."
