Why has this change occurred? What factors are responsible for the increased popularity of spray paint over recent years? Perhaps the chief reason for the greatly increased usage of spray paint outside the realm of street art and graffiti is the ease and speed of application it offers. Applying a coating to a substrate with spray paint could not be simpler. An individual takes the spray can, holds down the nozzle and applies across the length or width of the object in a number of strokes. Once completed a subsequent coating is applied. This is far less labour and time intensive than traditional painting methods that require for the individual to constantly top up the paint on the application tool, whether brush or roller, and then apply the coating through a series of strokes.
Whilst this factor is not exclusive to spray paint, as all paint that is applied to a substrate provides varying degrees of protection to the underlying substrate. Spray paint differs as conventional paint merely sits on top of the surface to which it is applied, meaning that over time it can separate and peel away, this not only results in a poor aesthetic appearance, it means that the underlying surface is no longer protected. In some cases, damp can occur between the paint and the substrate, causing unseen damage to which the owner is often oblivious. With spray paint, however, the paint actually
It is not merely practical factors that can attribute for the overwhelming popularity of spray paint. A further reason for its popularity is the diversity of substrates to which it can be effectively coated, providing all of the advantages listed above. The substrates to which spray paint can be applied include, but are not limited to, are wood, metal, plastic and glass. Therefore the applications which are suitable for spraying are far more diverse in their scope than other application methods.
A further reason for the high levels of popularity that spray paint is enjoying that have taken it from the domain of street art and graffiti into mainstream usage is the diversity of coating available. Seemingly, there is no limit on the coating colour available in spray paint form. This diversity not only includes the colour contained within the popular and leading colour coding systems, such as the Pantone coding system or the RAL system, it also includes a number of contemporary coating types. This includes those created by VeroMetal, this paint differs from other paint types as the paint contained within each spray can is comprised of 95% metal. This means that once the coating is applied the material or substrate to which it is applied actually enjoys all of the benefits and characteristics of a metal coating. This is highly beneficial as it enables for individuals to take advantage of a metal coating within the cost and weight associated with the real thing.
