Painting Service for CNC Machined Parts

Painting is a versatile and widely used metal finishing technique that provides both protection and aesthetic enhancement for metal surfaces. Appearance ideal for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications.

What is Spray Painting?

Spray painting involves atomizing liquid paint and applying it uniformly to part surfaces using a spray gun. This process creates a smooth, protective, and decorative coating layer that adheres well when proper priming and surface preparation are applied.

Types of Paint Finishes We Offer
Glossy / High-Gloss
Shiny, reflective surface finish.
Matte / Satin
Soft, low-sheen finish.
Metallic / Pearl
Decorative finishes with shimmering effects.
Textured Paint
Anti-slip or aesthetic textures.
Custom Colors
Pantone or RAL color matching.
