High Gloss Painting (Class A, automotive quality)
Universal Plastics offers class A automotive quality high gloss painting services, with six state-of-the-art paint booths (including two high gloss paint booths) capable of handling part sizes up to 11’x11’x3′. We also do QC inspections with CMM Color conformance with a Datacolor 600. Our painting service can match colors exactly to your specifications and will provide your products with the highest quality finish. Universal Plastics’ in-house painting facility can provide any color or finish clients require – including EMI/RFI shielding and water-borne paint. Our in-house finishing means that we assume responsibility for products from design to finish. Universal Plastics also offers screen-printing (even on textured surfaces), and PAD-printing as well as hot-stamping in single or multiple colors.
Anticipating increasing customer demand for Universal Plastics’ high-gloss painted parts, we completed construction of three new state-of-the-art paint booths. We have also created a dust-free environment to ensure the highest quality of our painted finishes. Shown is an image of a DNA Sequencer manufactured and wet painted by Universal Plastics.
