What Is a Rubber Spray?
A rubber spray is a versatile product that dries into a rubbery texture, unlike conventional paint. It allows for color customization while forming a rubber film upon drying, useful for stain prevention, enhancing scratch resistance, and providing slip resistance. Available in both water-based and oil-based formulas, rubber spray comes in various colors and is safe for use on a wide range of materials without causing damage.
Its high-grade silicone composition imparts a lustrous finish to resin parts. Resistant to high temperatures (up to 266 °F or 130 °C), it’s ideal for surfaces exposed to direct sunlight. Despite creating a durable protective coating, it can be easily removed by hand.
Uses of Rubber Sprays
Rubber sprays are practical for outdoor applications, like in greenhouses, as they resist dirt accumulation after drying. They reduce wear on plastic parts during assembly and disassembly and offer excellent protection and rust prevention for cutting edges, grinding parts, molds, and tools. This makes them ideal for maintaining frequently used tools.
When applied to wires and steel wires, rubber spray improves sliding properties. It’s effective for preventing the stickiness of gaskets and rubbers and enhances lubrication in older equipment connections and keyholes. This spray also facilitates lubrication between resin and metal parts, reducing creaking noises. Additionally, it serves as a protective and rust-preventive coating for metal parts and imparts a glossy finish to resin components.
