Did you know?

Bubbling after painting might be caused by the one step you never paid attention to!

A client called us saying: “The paint is bubbling after spraying!”

We rushed to the site to check the issue.

This time, the problem was very typical:

They used silver primer + silicone-based high-temperature topcoat, resistant to 300°C — the materials seemed fine.

But after spraying — massive bubbling on the surface!

Our analysis revealed:

The spray distance was too far during silver primer application, resulting in a dry-spray effect Particles scattered, creating a loose and porous surface, with tiny holes clearly visible Without sanding or sealing, applying the next coat directly caused inevitable bubbling!

This is similar to inorganic zinc-rich primers, which also tend to form structural bubbles.

So what’s the fix?

The standard solution is applying a sealing primer, but that adds extra steps and cost.

Our solution?

We adjusted the coating system:

Replaced silver powder with a silver-colored topcoat

Switched the primer to grey-white silicone anticorrosive primer

Problem solved in one step — smooth spraying, and a very happy client!
