What's the difference between paint and water-based paint?

The difference between water-based paint and paint:

Compared with paint, the wear resistance and aging resistance of water-based paint are obviously improved. Compared with traditional coatings, water-based paints are more affordable, easier to use and less harmful.

Waterborne coatings, with water as diluent, have the characteristics of wear resistance, aging resistance and convenient use. It is harmless to human body and does not pollute the environment. It can be used on various materials such as metal and glass.

Advantages of waterborne coatings

1, using water as solvent. Save resources; Eliminate potential safety hazards; Reduce air pollution; Improve working conditions.

2, it can be directly constructed; Good surface adaptability and strong adhesion.

3. Tools can be cleaned, which reduces the amount of cleaning agent and reduces the damage to construction workers.

4, the electrophoretic coating is flat; Good protection and corrosion resistance, salt spray resistance can reach1200 h.

Disadvantages of water-based paint

1, which has high requirements for construction. Due to the large surface tension, it is easy to shrink the coating.

2. Poor stability, resulting in pits on the coating. The pipe wall is free from defects.

3. Strong corrosiveness and high equipment cost. The coating produces pits, so stainless steel pipes are needed.

4. Strict construction requirements increase energy consumption.

5. The latent heat of evaporation is large, so it needs to be baked at 180℃; It takes a long time to dry thoroughly.

6. Baking produces lampblack, which affects the appearance of the surface.

7. Poor water resistance and stability.

Waterborne paint, waterborne antirust paint, waterborne steel structure paint, waterborne floor paint, waterborne wood paint, wood wax oil.

It is harmless to human body and does not pollute the environment. The paint film is plump, crystal clear, flexible, water-resistant, wear-resistant, aging-resistant, yellowing-resistant, quick-drying and convenient to use.
