Paint Strippers

We provide paint stripping solutions tailored to the requirements of the coating and the process to remove unwanted paint layers from paint racks and metal parts.

Paint Strippers

Over time, coating buildup accumulates on racks painted alongside parts in coating lines. These accumulations can impair electrical conductivity and compromise consistent coating quality. Paint stripping chemicals are utilized to clean paint racks and prepare rejected metal parts for reprocessing.

At MFI Makina Kimya, we deliver paint stripping solutions tailored to the metal substrate, paint chemistry, and operational plant conditions. Cold-working solvent-based and hot-working alkaline product options are evaluated according to specific application requirements.

Formulations operate through distinct mechanisms, either stripping paint by delamination (flaking) or by dissolving it. Selecting the appropriate product requires a comprehensive assessment of stripping duration, chemical consumption, bath maintenance, and subsequent surface preparation.

Applications and Areas of Use

Cleaning of paint racks
Defective or reject metal parts
Pre-treatment prior to repainting
Cold-working solvent-based products
Hot-working alkaline products
Product selection tailored to paint and metal substrates
Metal parts undergoing surface treatment on a hanging line

The Correct Approach to Paint Stripping

An efficient paint stripping process depends not only on stripping efficiency, but also on substrate compatibility and bath operating parameters. We select products and application methods by assessing the existing coating alongside target surface preparation standards.

Cold-Working Systems

Solvent-based paint strippers offer a cold-working alternative for compatible processes. Volatility, ventilation, and product loss must be evaluated within the context of plant operating conditions.

Hot-Working Systems

Alkaline paint strippers operate at temperatures specified by the product's technical parameters. Operating temperature and concentration are defined according to paint characteristics and metal metallurgy.

Mechanism of Action Matched to the Paint

Formulations that remove paint through delamination or complete dissolution address differing process requirements. The selection balances stripping cycle time, chemical consumption, and bath maintenance.

Preparation for Downstream Processing

Surface condition is inspected following the stripping cycle. Rinsing, drying, and surface preparation steps prior to recoating are engineered according to the selected chemistry and production workflow.

Our Application Process

Beginning with a technical assessment of the paint and substrate, we collaboratively plan product selection, application parameters, and post-treatment surface preparation.

1
Paint and Substrate Analysis

Metal alloy, paint chemistry, film thickness, and overall component condition are evaluated.

2
Product and Method Selection

Cold solvent-based or hot alkaline formulations are evaluated based on coating chemistry and line specifications.

3
Determination of Operating Conditions

Contact time, temperature, and concentration are established based on current technical data and empirical line assessments.

4
Surface Inspection and Preparation

Stripping efficacy is inspected; rinsing, drying, and pre-paint preparation steps are scheduled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers below to frequently asked questions regarding paint stripper selection and application parameters. Contact our technical team for process-specific guidance.

What are the primary applications of paint strippers?
They are used to remove accumulated coatings from paint line racks and to prepare rejected metal components for rework. Chemistry selection must be aligned with the substrate and the coating characteristics.
What is the difference between cold-working and hot-working products?
Cold-working formulations are generally solvent-based, whereas hot-working formulations rely on alkaline chemistry. The optimal process method is determined by the paint type, metal substrate, available equipment, and operating environment. Refer to the product's current technical data sheet and safety data sheet.
What factors determine paint stripping time?
Stripping time is governed by the paint type, dry film thickness, degree of cure, and substrate adhesion. The working concentration and operating bath temperature are also critical factors. A single standardized cycle time cannot be applied to all applications.
What is the difference between delamination stripping and dissolution stripping?
Certain products strip paint by releasing it in sheets/flakes, while others dissolve the polymer matrix entirely. These distinct mechanisms directly affect chemical consumption rates and bath maintenance procedures. Selection should be tailored to the component design and plant process requirements.
