Metal surfaces exist in three types: ferrous, nonferrous, and alloys. While most of them conduct heat and electricity, their characteristics present different approaches to and products for painting.
Ferrous metals contain iron and are known for tensile strength, like stainless steel.
Nonferrous metals have no iron and are valued for their resistance to corrosion and rust.
Alloys combine metals or a metal with another non-metallic element, like copper and zinc make brass.
The most common metals in architecture and construction are lead, tin, zinc, copper, aluminum, brass and cast iron or wrought iron, and stainless steel. The longevity and attractive appearance of metal make it especially appealing in window frames and fences. Many of the old buildings around New York City and northern New Jersey were designed with metal window frames precisely for strength and enduring appeal.
Despite its distinctive stability, metal requires routine maintenance and protection from the elements and time. This provides myriad creative solutions for colors and incorporates window frames into an overall style and interior and exterior design strategy.
Electrostatic painting is a highly specialized method of covering the metal with paint embedded with an electrical charge which uniquely causes the paint to adhere to the opposite charged surface of the metals. Any metal with iron in it, including many kinds of steel, has magnetic properties which make electrostatic painting ideal.
With experts on the job, electrostatic painting can be done faster with a high transfer efficiency and minimum environmental concerns. It’s easy to reach corners and out-of-the-way spots because the paint will seek out its opposite charged surface, and sprayed paint can be applied comfortably in odd-to-reach places.
Mullions and window frames are small in volume compared the glass they frame, and expert preparation is imperative to preserve all the glass panes and surrounding area. Depending on the age and condition of the metal, it may require cleaning with specially formulated products, plus several sessions with different grades of sandpaper and steel wool. Interior windows require a different primer and paint product than exterior frames, and we can guide you in the best choices and the process. You may want one color inside and a different color on the outside.
Metal wall panels used to be more common outside than inside, but the appeal of industrial style has brought metal beams, stairway railings and wall panels to interiors.
