Scottsdale, Arizona — December 17, 2015 — B-TEC Systems has introduced a high speed dryer for spray outs, the ST-01 Paint Sample Dryer. According to the company, the unit is designed to produce rapid drying of both waterborne basecoats and urethane clears and single stage coatings.
The ST-01 can use infrared, air movement or both to obtain a fast drying result. A statement from B-TEC Systems says that before its launch, the ST-01 Paint Sample Dryer was tested on high performance waterborne basecoats and achieved drying results in as little as 90 seconds, with clear coats reported to be curing in only three minutes.
Peter Phillipson is Technical Sales Manager for B-TEC Systems’ Infrared Program and was in charge of the testing.
“Obviously, our main infrared offerings are the mobiles, but this little unit certainly compliments the range. The better body shop pros like to see a fully dried/cured spray out for colour matching purposes,” Phillipson says. “Sometimes a difficult colour can add hours to a job. Time is money as they say and the ST-01 Paint Sample Dryer certainly keeps dry times down to the absolute minimum.”
