In the automotive industry, more and more vehicle purchasing customers wish to be able to distinguish their own vehicle from other customers. Proprietary appearance modeling is an important means to meet this attractive demand, and thus proprietary colors that are specifically tailored to customer needs emerge. Because the custom color is mostly one-time order, the residual paint (system circulation amount + surplus) can only be scrapped after the spraying is finished. If the centralized paint supply system is used for the paint mixing room, the circulation amount of the single system is more than 320Kg, namely, at least 320Kg of paint is scrapped after the spraying is finished; if the color of the paint is customized, namely the paint has two types of coatings, more than 640kg of paint needs to be scrapped if 2 systems are required for conveying the paint. The scrapped amount of the paint is large, so that the cost of a single paint is high and the VOC emission is high.
In view of the above, the present invention provides a method for coating a flexible top-coat paint, which can reduce the paint circulation amount of a paint delivery system in a coating apparatus, reduce the cost and VOC, and fig. 1 is a schematic perspective view of an embodiment of the coating apparatus provided by the present invention; FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a painting apparatus and a painting station according to an embodiment of the present invention; fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of the method for applying a flexible topcoat according to the present invention.

Thereby, the material is fed towards the circulating tank 11 through the feeding tank 12, so that the circulating pipe is ensured to have enough circulating paint, the minimum circulating amount of paint conveying is reduced, and the stable spraying is ensured; in this way, custom color paint circulation reduction, cost and VOC reduction can be achieved.

The first liquid level critical value is 25% of the total liquid level height of the circulation tank 11, and the second liquid level value is 75% of the total liquid level height of the circulation tank 11, so that when the ratio is lower than 25%, the charge pump is controlled to operate, so that the charge tank 12 feeds the circulation tank 11, and when the ratio is higher than 75%, the charge pump is controlled to stop operating.
Further, the step S32 further includes:
