in a single coating unit, comprising applying the paints to the substrates, and recovering the overspray of the paints. wherein the overspray is a mixture of the paints of different hues or colors, optionally, adding fresh paint to the recovered paint. selecting one or more substrates, where the desired coating color for the substrate is the color of the recovered mixed paint, and reusing the recovered paint in the spray painting process to coat the selected substrate.
Aqueous
Polyurethane
