GLOSSARY TERM

Electrostatic Spraying

A method of applying paint using electrically charged particles to improve transfer efficiency and reduce overspray.

INFO

What it is

Electrostatic spraying applies an electric charge to paint particles as they leave the gun. The charged paint is drawn to the earthed surface, wrapping around it for highly efficient coverage.

Why it matters

The wrap-around effect coats awkward shapes and reaches areas that would be hard to cover by conventional spraying, while cutting overspray and material waste. This makes it efficient and clean.

Where it is used on a project

Particularly effective on metal items with complex shapes, such as railings, fencing, lamp posts, and structural steel, where even all-round coverage is wanted.

How NECC approaches it

Where a job suits it, we can use electrostatic techniques to achieve efficient, even coverage on metalwork, reducing waste while delivering a high-quality finish.
