How is the surface finish

With the Extra Paint finish we make a Vapor Smoothing to the piece before applying the color and varnish. For this reason, the final result is a much smoother piece than what we are used to in pieces manufactured with Multi Jet Fusion technology.
We obtain a roughness of 1-3 μm on the parts.

How do we do it

To attain the high quality of our Extra Paint Finishing, we go through the following processes:

  • First, we apply a Vapor Smoothing to the parts to reduce the rugosity of the surface.
  • Then, we coat parts with automotive grade liquid paint.
  • Finally we apply the clear coat to achieve maximum resistance and UV protection.

Painting and Varnishing

With the Extra Paint finish, almost 100% of the piece is painted. Being a finish with paint and varnish we have to hold the piece in all processes, that is why at the end there will be a small unpainted circle on the inside of the piece.
In addition, the holes that are very deep and of small diameter, will not be completely painted.
