Piano Black


Piano Black - We love to see it on our cars interior and exterior but if you are responsible for creating this desirable look, you need  the right tools.
  
Just saying "piano black" conjures images of the deep rich look of a glossy black Grand Piano with a tuxedo clad gentleman performing your favorite classical piece; his hands sweeping across the ivories with grace and beauty.

In a paint shop, hearing the phrase "piano black" can make chills run up your spine and make your production team run for cover.

Whether applying high gloss clear over black paint for an interior part or an abrasion resistant hardcoat to a Polycarbonate exterior part such as a B-pillar, there are several important features that must exist in your paint system.

It's all about controlling your process.  With a properly designed paint system (built by Thierica of course:-) you can achieve your goals

The keys to our design include
  • Part cleaning- our latest "dry cleaning" methods.  We are able to clean the parts as they enter the paint line. 
  • The air entering our water-wash booths, tunnels and ovens all utilize HEPA filtration which creates a clean room atmosphere. 
  • Thierica has also developed Air flow monitoring software that automatically keeps your system air flows balanced between filter changes. 
  • Accurate temperature and humidity control from our engineered Air make-up system is also critical.

When Thierica builds your paint system, you get the tools you need to successfully process high gloss "piano black" parts.
