  • E-Coat

    Electrodeposition coating (E-Coat) is an environmentally friendly method to protect the metal substrates.
    VECTROGARD™, VOTON™ and V-SHIELD™ are Sherwin-Williams E-Coat brands used in the electrodeposition process, where metallic parts are immersed in the coating bath and the system allows to apply a uniform thickness with high automation, high productivity and total applied cost efficiency.
