Defects in Paint Work

The defects which are commonly found in paint work are as follow.

1.Blistering

Formation of bubbles like shapes on the painted surface is known as blistering. The primary cause of this defect is water vapor. When water vapor trapped under the paint layer, it creates bubbles under the film of paint.

2.盛开

Formation of dull patches on the painted surface is known as blooming. The primary cause of this defect is poor quality of paint and improper ventilation.

3.Fading

When there is a gradual loss of colour from the pained surface, it is known as fading. The main cause of this defect is the reaction of sunlight on pigments of paint.

4.Flaking

In this type of defect, some portion of the paint film is not sticked properly with the surface; resulting flaking off of the paint layer. This is cause due to poor adhesion between paint and the surface to be painted.

5.Flashing

Presence of glossy patches on the painted surface is known as flashing. The cause of this defect is mainly due to poor workmanship, cheap paint or weather actions.

6.Grinning

如果最终涂料的厚度变得非常薄，则可以清楚地看到背景。这被称为咧嘴笑。工艺差是这种缺陷的主要原因。

7.Running

This type of defect is seen when the surface to be painted is very smooth. In case of smooth surface the paint runs back and leaves small areas of surface uncovered.

8。Sagging

This type of defect is more prominent when a thick layer of paint is applied on a vertical or inclined surface.

9.Saponification

Formation of soap patches on the painted surface is termed as saponification. Chemical action of alkalis is the cause of this defect.

10.Wrinkling

This type of defect is more prominent when a thick layer of paint is applied on a horizontal surface.
