Paint Masking
The Value Of Bostik's Paint Masking Solution
Improved End-Use Application Performance
Bostik’s paint masking solution is an adhesive that allows you to protect sheet metal and plastic substrates from paint processes that could otherwise impact its quality. It offers:
- Excellent resistance against chemicals including paint, grease and plasticizers
- Ability to meet different paint bake temperatures with varied SKUs
- Capability to pass UL 94 V-0 flammability specifications
These attributes help extend end-use automotive application durability and help provide assurance that the substrate can maintain performance after exposure to paint or environmental factors.
Increased Processing Efficiencies
Bostik's paint masking solution is designed to be robotically-applied, allowing you to replace traditional masking processes that require manual application. Because it’s dispensed automatically, this option helps provide consistent application that can reduce error likelihood and increase application ease. This allows you to streamline overall material costs and decrease waste potential.
Additionally, our solution can offer up to 18-month shelf life to help streamline production processes.
Enhanced Sustainability
Our paint masking solution also helps you enhance sustainability in the following ways:
- Easy removability to minimize material waste and associated expenses with traditional masking processes
- Bio-sourced formulation to reduce hazardous materials and ease end-of-life breakdown
- VOC-free (due to being 100% solids) to reduce carbon emissions
