Why Nadcap Painting?

When OEMs and Tier 1 companies need to ensure protection and add eye appeal to their products, they often turn to paint. For the highest quality industrial painting that is demanded in the aerospace and defense industries, you need Nadcap Painting. Nadcap Painting is a quality standard that meets the strictest requirements and practices. At the Wolkerstorfer Company, we offer the highest level of Nadcap Painting that meets the requirements of Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Raytheon, to name a few.

What Sets Nadcap Painting Apart?

When you think of the word “paint”, what immediately comes to mind? Perhaps you would think of the earliest times when cave dwellers decorated their walls, 40,000 years ago. Maybe you picture Michelangelo adorning the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. Perhaps you imagine Picasso or the development of the Cubist style. Today, sadly, we may think of painting as no more than an unwanted chore around the house.

Here at Wolkerstorfer, “Paint”, has a more serious tone.

Wolkerstorfer is Nadcap Certified to apply Paint and Dry Films. We use various industrial painting systems to enhance the performance of aerospace and defense components. We work with coatings that provide improved lubricity, such as Dry Films or Chemical Agent Resistant Coatings (CARC) paints that protect our military. Wolkerstorfer Company is certified by numerous OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers because we have proven ourselves as a trusted Nadcap painting partner.

The key to optimizing these industrial painting systems is to follow discrete pretreatment steps, including cleaning, abrasive blasting, chem film, anodizing, phosphating, passivation, or detailed masking, before the first coat of paint is applied. The use of wash primers, primers, and sophisticated topcoat systems, per the OEMs specifications and the manufacturer’s instructions, ensure performance and durability.

The primer, top coat, and dry film systems are Nadcap paint certified (AC7108/1).
