Equipment Start-Up Guide
The process for applying Chemours Teflon™ industrial coatings includes reincorporating solids in the coating by rolling, preparing the surface by grit blasting, spraying the coating with the correct spray equipment, and curing the coating in a Class A industrial oven. In order to achieve the optimal coating, each step is important and should be considered as you evaluate this process. Below is a recommended equipment list for applying fluoropolymer coatings.
