Coating Methods
Coating methods are techniques used to apply a protective or decorative layer to a surface. Common methods include painting, where liquid paint is brushed or sprayed on; electroplating, which uses electric currents to deposit metal layers; powder coating, where dry powder is sprayed and then heated to form a smooth finish; and dipping, where an object is submerged in liquid coating. Each method serves different purposes, such as corrosion resistance, durability, or aesthetics, and is chosen based on the material, application needs, and desired appearance.
