There is a new kind of paint that many people are talking about called Nano paint. Nano paint is a very tough surface coat that can give a lot of durability to your surface.
Nano paint is a liquid paint that is sprayed onto a surface. It is then heated to ensure the Nano paint topcoat is hardened. Because of its properties and the nature of the application, the Nano surface is extremely thin yet very tough and durable. This makes it an excellent paint choice for all kinds of home decor and home furnishing product development.

What is the Nano Paint Coating?
The Nano paint coating is a liquid paint that can be sprayed on any surface. It is then heated so that it will harden and dry. Nano paints can be put on almost any surface and they offer an extremely harden paint topcoat.
A more technical term for a Nano paint is:
“Nano paint is a coating that can modify the properties of a surface or substance according to user-defined parameters. Like ordinary paint, nano paint is applied as a liquid and then hardens. The liquid contains a suspension of microscopic particles called nanotubes that alter their behavior as external conditions change or when a specific command is given.”

Nano paint may look similar to a PVD coating, but Nano paint is not the same as a paint PVD coating. PVD coatings can also be put on various materials, but Nano paint allows you to put the paint on more surfaces than a PVD coating. A PVD coating is usually put on top of stainless steel.

How does Nano Paint Work?
Nano paint is a very tough surface paint because the particles will form a coating and then they will bond with the surface after the nano paint has been applied.
When Nano paint is applied, it takes the properties of other paints and then the Nano will form a very thin yet invisible surface application. This top surface cannot be seen with the naked eye but you can only see the top coating under very high magnification. This is one of the remarkable things about the Nano paint, the Nano coating is very thin yet extremely durable.
Here is a diagram to show how Nano paint works and is applied to a surface:
Some properties of Nano paint:
- Nano Paint develops a very strong chemical connection to the surface, which gives you a very tough surface area.
- If the surface is porous such as a brick, the nano paint will fill up the pores on the surface so that the top surface will be smooth and not porous. This helps to also give added benefit in that it will help to ensure that a surface that was once rough is now smooth.
- Dirt or liquids will not stay on the surface but will roll off a surface that has Nano paint on it.
- Things such as fungus, lichen, algae, and moss can no longer adhere to a surface with nano paint applied. This helps give it some added benefits when the application is put on it.
How Long Does the Nano Paint Coating Last?
How long the Nano paint coating will last depends on where and how it is used. For example, some people use Nano paint on their cars and other surfaces. This means the paints are always exposed to the natural outdoor elements so most paint suppliers say the Nano paint coating will last 2 to 3 years.
This of course makes sense as Nano paint coatings are exposed to the natural outdoor elements, as most paints will only last for a certain period of time. But if the paint is used indoors on something as a handle or hinge, it should last much longer.
Nano paint is a tough top coat surface that should last a long time, especially if used for home decor product development.
Uses of the Nano Paint in the Home Decor and Home Furnishing Industry
As Nano paint can be used on so many surfaces, in fact more surfaces than with the PVD Stainless Steel finish, this ensures that Nano paint can be used on a variety of items for the home decor and home furnishing industry.
We have outlined for you some of the basic uses for Nano paint that we see in the home decor and home furniture industry:
- Table and Furniture Bases – As Nano paint can be applied to metal, wood, or a host of other materials, it is very easy to use this kind of paint coating on all kinds of tables and furniture bases. This is a very good coating to use as it is extremely durable. This would include using it on even chair bases or chair legs.
- Mirror Frames and Wall Art – The Nano paint finish could be made into a mirror frame or a wall art piece. As it can be painted on MDF, Wood, ceramic, resin, or metal, you would not be limited what kinds of shapes you can do.
- Lamps and Lighting – Nano paint can be used on lamps and lighting and also lamp and lighting parts.
- Home Decor Accessory Items – As the nano paint is so versatile, it can also be used on a variety of home decor accessory items
- Hardware and parts –Nano paint would also do well on things like hardware parts for all kinds of home decor and home furniture items.
We like these Nano paints. Not only is it versatile, so it has a lot of uses for the home decor and home furniture industry, but we also feel like it is an excellent paint to use for all kinds of home decor and home furnishing product development.
