2.  Common complaints:
 Dust and dirt inclusions
 Halo’s Dark edges
 Blending issues
 Colour matching issues
The “overall cause is static electricity”
Static is the invisible enemy of the perfect paint finish!

3. Rubbing two things together or bringing repetetly into contact is
enough to create triboelelectricity,
Stored energy
Triboelelectricity
What creates it:
Bringing different
materials into
contact

4. -
1. Plastic (black) and tackrack ( gray) normally have no electric charge.
2. Put them in contact and the plastic attracts electrons from the
tackcrack.
3. Separate them and the electrons remain on the plastic, making it
positively charged.
4. Rubbing the two substances together increases the contact between
them and makes the that electrons will migrate from the tackrack to
the plastic. Static build-up!

6.  Many everyday processes within a bodyshop can cause static
build-up, sanding, panel wiping, tacking, blowing off, masking
and even the application of materials.
 The final preparation process of tacking is one of the highest
generators of static electricity.
 All these procedures incorporate some type of contact and
separation with the panel, whether it is physical contact or air
contact.

7.  Cold areas
 Dry areas
What reduces static build-up
 Humidity

8. Differences in positive and negative static charge on a surface will
prevent the paint film from applying evenly.
A grill is a perfect example of where static will not allow perfect
paint flow and will often prevent coverage in all the corners of the
grill.

9.  Metallic particles in paint react to static charge in the same
way iron filings would behave when a magnet is placed
underneath.The higher the charge the more upright the
metallic will be forced to sit, in turn distorting the levels of
light reflected from those particles, in fact any area which
shows an inconsistency between light and dark can be
caused by metallics being distorted by static.
Result: dark edges, patchiness, halo’s
all substrates on a vehicle should have zero static charge before painting to bring a uniformity

11.  Panels that are statically charged form an electromagnetic field
and, as the word magnetic indicates, attract any airborne particles
from the surrounding area,.
The smallest particles of dust and dirt within a job can incur costly
rework, through additional labour and paint costs.
Static build-up, neutralised, dust and dirt in the
atmosphere is no longer attracted to the panel
Contact: Franklin.Bosman@Bako.be - Mobile +32 486 715851

12.  The way to remove static effectively throughout the painting
process is to use ionised air. As the static forms in positive and
negative charge, the positive and negative ions produced from
the Stat-Gun neutralise the charge (positive neutralises negative &
vice versa).
Contact: Franklin.Bosman@Bako.be - Mobile +32 486 715851

13. This is achieved by introducing the Stat-Gun as the final stage of the
preparation process just prior to spraying.
The Stat-Gun uses a microprocessor to generate high voltage
transferred through tungsten emitters, which in turn generate
positive and negative ions.
Air flow is an important part of the process allowing the ions
generated to travel quickly and distribute evenly over the charged
area. Air movement also aids removal of contaminates previously
bonded by static charge.
