It’s All About the Chemistry

The Paint Doctor knows the chemical properties of paint products is a crucial aspect of a professional painter’s skill set for several reasons:

  1. Health and Safety: Different chemicals in paints can have various health and safety risks, such as toxicity, flammability, and irritation. Knowing about these can helps our painters take necessary precautions to protect themselves and others.
  2. Application Techniques: Some chemicals affect how paint should be applied. For instance, certain solvents may require specific ventilation or temperatures for optimal application.
  3. Durability and Finish: The chemical makeup of paint can affect its durability and the quality of the finish. Our professional painters choose the right product depending on the environment and the surface being painted to ensure the longevity and appearance of the paint job.
  4. Compliance with Regulations: There are often regulations regarding the use of certain chemical products. Our paint product knowledge ensures that painters comply with local laws and industry standards.
  5. Eco-friendliness: With growing awareness about environmental impact, our knowledge of low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) or eco-friendly paints offers greener alternatives to their clients.
  6. Problem-solving: Understanding the chemical composition helps us troubleshoot issues like paint peeling, bubbling, or discoloration, ensuring high-quality work and customer satisfaction.
  7. Innovation and Efficiency: Staying informed about new advancements in paint technology allows our painters to use innovative products that increase efficiency and improve outcomes.

This knowledge is part of what sets our professional painters apart, ensuring safe, high-quality, and compliant work standards. Let’s see if we have the right chemistry for your project, 541-497-3804

Our painters are a little like the chemists at Sherwin-Williams, we pay attention to the composition of the product and to the best practices for apply it.
