The automobile and aerospace industry uses waterborne enamel paints to coat the bodywork of cars and airplanes, which requires precise control of the ambient temperature-humidity conditions.

In fact, too low relative humidity causes the early evaporation of the water contained in the droplets of spray paint, decreasing the fluidity and the covering capacity.

On the other hand, too high humidity leads to defects due to the excessive dilution of the layer of enamel deposited on the body and the formation of minuscule “pockets” of liquid that evaporate during the dryness phase in the oven, forming small craters on the painted surface.

CAREL humiFog humidifier, also available in a free silicone version especially designed for painting booth applications, is the perfect solution guaranteeing energy savings and accurate humidity control.
