Why Is Paint and Coating Removal Necessary?

Paint adheres to jigs and tools used in automotive painting processes. If this accumulated paint flakes off or becomes airborne inside the paint booth, it can cause paint defects due to contamination, potentially resulting in defects on newly painted vehicle bodies. To help prevent such paint defects, paint adhering to jigs and tools used in the process must be stripped and cleaned regularly.

Conditions of Paint and Coatings

Although they are all generally referred to as "paint," the appropriate cleaner or stripper differs depending on the condition of the paint.

● For paint that has already been heat-cured, the STRIAL Series is ideal. Using it together with a pre-coating agent is recommended.
● For uncured paint that has only dried, applying a pre-coating agent (POLYCERA GUARD M) to the jig in advance allows the paint coating to be removed simply by immersing the jig in hot water.

Causes of Paint Defects Due to Contamination

Jigs and tools are not the only sources of contamination that can cause paint defects. Paint accumulated on the inner surfaces of paint lines or around the openings of bell cups (paint outlets on painting robots) may not be removable with thinner and can become a source of paint defects.
KAKEN TECH has developed a paint line cleaning series for removing deposits from inside paint lines, as well as the BELLSEN Series for removing accumulated paint from bell cups and spray guns.
