Electrophoretic coating, also called e-coating, is a modern technique for protecting metal parts with a layer of paint using electricity. The process starts by dipping the metal into a water-based paint bath. An electric current then helps the paint stick evenly, forming a strong and uniform layer. This method helps prevent rust and is often used as a primer in industries such as automotive manufacturing before a topcoat is applied. Here’s how e-coating works.
The first step is to thoroughly clean the metal surfaces to remove any oils or dirt.
Next, the cleaned parts are completely dipped into a tank filled with water-based e-coating solution.
