FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT AUTOMOTIVE COATING

Lightweight, durable, and protective, plastic coatings and the automotive industry complement each other. Read on to learn more about this natural match with answers to some common questions.

  • What coatings are best for BSR reduction?

    Buzzes, squeaks, and rattles are the bane of mechanics and the automotive industry at large. Plastic coating solutions which can eliminate or minimize BSR issues, improving customer satisfaction, include:

    • Nylon - Its low-friction surface helps quiet the squeaking caused by rubbing parts
    • Plastisol - Soft and rubbery, it can muffle or prevent buzzes, vibrations, and rattles
    • Halar® - Ultra-smooth Halar can prevent or minimize the sounds caused by friction and rubbing
  • Do plastic coatings improve safety for the automotive industry?

    Plastic coatings improve the durability and longevity of numerous vehicle parts, reducing wear and damage, enabling them to perform safely for a longer time, and offer improved protection against impacts and collisions. 

  • How does the automotive industry benefit from plastic coatings?

    Thin, lightweight coatings, such as nylon, offer reduced friction and drag with virtually no additional weight or bulk, improving vehicle efficiency and performance. Plastisol and other coatings provide BSR reduction, electrical insulation, and protection from environmental hazards which benefit manufacturers, mechanics, and drivers.

  • How can plastic coatings help car parts last longer?

    Frames, axles, gears, and countless other critical car parts are made of metal which is highly vulnerable to oxidation and corrosion caused by moisture, salt, and other chemicals and substances vehicles come into contact with. The protective barrier of plastic coatings can prevent such contact, ensuring the metal underneath remains untouched. Reductions in friction and other wear and tear offers additional protection. 

  • How do drivers and passengers benefit from plastic vehicle coatings?

    Whether it's more comfortable surfaces on controls, a quieter interior, insulation from electricity, improved vehicle performance and longevity, or simply enhanced aesthetics, plastic coatings can provide anyone in a vehicle with a safer, more comfortable ride.
