Painting & Chem Film Services
Precise Metal Product offers painting and chem film coatings including MIL-DTL 5541 Class 1A & 3, Alodine 1200S, and PTI PT-209C coatings. Our paint and chem-film coatings are NADCAP accredited and in compliance with all applicable Mil-Spec requirements. Available coating types include polyurethane, enamel, epoxy, and thermal barrier coatings designed for protection and adhesion to materials such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, or titanium.
Prior to coating application, all substrates are thoroughly cleaned via mechanical or alkaline cleaning, then primed and masked as specified. Surface reactivity tests are performed as necessary. Surfaces are coated with conversion coatings or sprayed with HVLP spray guns and allowed to cure by air drying or baking, depending on the coating. Our curing ovens range in temperature between 180°F and 350°F depending on specified cure temperature and are tightly controlled for a quality, even cure.
We offer water break, coating thickness, adhesion, wet tape, solvent resistance, and corrosion resistance testing to ensure proper substrate adhesion and coating performance. Our ability to form, machine, fabricate, assemble, and coat parts makes even complex components and sub-assemblies very economically priced. We can assist customers in determining the optimal manufacturing processes and coatings for their application to ensure they are provided with the highest quality parts at the best possible prices.
