Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is Electrostatic Painting?
If you have steel or metal substrates for painting which have previously been powder coated or are very ornate in nature, then electrostatic coating applications are ideal for you.
Our highly trained spray operators use Ransburg Electro equipment, which statically charges the atomised coating as it leaves the spray head. The positively charged paint then seeks out metal surfaces in its vicinity and “wraps” the coating around the item being painted.
Unlike conventional or airless spray processes, the paint is statically drawn to the metal from all directions so there is no over spray – a great result for the worksite and the environment.
Q. Does Ransburg work with other contractors?
Yes, the specialists nature of our business means that we work regularly with building contractors, general painting contractors, and mechanical service contractors to delivery quality upgrades and refurbishment projects.

Q. Do you have environmentally friendly coatings?
- Yes – our electrostatic process and the materials we use are targeted as “green” options in an industry that traditionally has wasteful spray application methods.
- We use paints which have low Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
- Our application methods mean that a minimum of 90% of applied coatings actually apply to the target substrate.
- (With other spray techniques as little as 50% of paint reaches the surface).
- Less paint is therefore required, which means less VOCs being released into the atmosphere.
