If your business is looking tired and worn around the edges, it might be time for a fresh look with exterior painting and there's a cleaner, easier and safer method than the old brush and bucket. A professional spray painter can create a beautiful finish in a fraction of the time.
How it works
Spray painting creates a fine mist from liquid paint in one of two ways: using specialised air compressors or aerosol gas.
The paint is either combined with air or converted into tiny droplets and accelerated through a nozzle. This creates a fine, atomised spray so the paint can be applied evenly to almost any surface.
Faster painting
Spray painting is much faster than using a traditional brush or hand roller. It can get the job done up to 15 times faster than even the biggest of hand rollers. And a quick turnaround when painting your offices means less downtime for your business.
Spray painting also reduces the amount of paint needed, as the controlled application results in an even coverage. This creates a smoother and more attractive finish than can be achieved with a roller or brush.
Versatile coverage
Spray painting is suitable for almost any surface, including:
It's particularly beneficial if you need to apply paint to uneven surfaces, large areas and fiddly corners.
The professional edge
Professional spray painters use equipment that can make the application even more effective. Some equipment can pre-heat the paint as it travels through the hose, improving atomisation. Others utilise electrostatic energy, which electrically charges the paint molecules, resulting in more paint sticking to your walls.
Spray-on insulation
Forget pink batts, you can even spray on foam insulation. It creates a better seal by filling in potential air gaps, which can save you money on heating and cooling costs. It also prevents moisture build-up, which can cause expensive damage to your premises.
When is spray painting the best option?
Commercial and industrial spray painting is best suited to premises that are too difficult or costly to hand-paint.
In some situations walls may be so large that hand-painting will be overly time consuming, or elaborate fixtures may be awkward to access with brushes and rollers. Hiring a spray painter also removes the potential OH&S danger of using ladders and extendable rollers to access high ceilings.
Hazards to consider
Take into account the airflow of the areas you need to paint. A toxic build-up of fumes can occur in small or poorly ventilated areas and paint can accumulate in the air and drip onto already painted sections.
Excessively draughty areas can also be problematic, as the spray of paint can misdirect and damage other surfaces.
Boost your business
First impressions count, and shabby premises can taint your professional image. A dilapidated workplace suggests careless owners and managers.
In turn, a bright, clean environment will instill confidence in your clients and customers. And a refreshed workplace is sure to revitalise your employees.
The quickest and easiest solution for your exterior painting is only a spray away.
