Resin and Metal Crafts: Coloring, Craftsmanship and Packaging
AI Summary: Resin crafts require mold making, casting, trimming, coloring and assembly, while metal crafts involve casting, stamping, electroplating or painting. The coloring layers and antique effects determine the texture. Procurement should verify mold costs, sampling, color deviation, adhesion and packaging, with focus on controlling paint peeling, bubbles and transport damage.
Procurement Checklist
| Review Item | Selection Points |
|---|---|
| Mold and Sampling | Mold cost, sample lead time and revision times |
| Coloring Adhesion | Painting and electroplating should not peel easily |
| Antique Effect | Natural aging layers |
| Batch Color Deviation | Compare against sealed sample from same batch |
| Packaging and Transport | Compartmentalized shockproof and anti-friction |
Procurement, Installation and Usage Points
1. Test abrasion resistance of painting
Wiping and packaging friction should not cause paint peeling.
2. Anti-oxidation for electroplated parts
Protection and dry packaging required in humid environments.
3. Check assembly firmness
Bonded parts must not be loose.
4. Customization Lead Time
Both mold making and coloring require time.
FAQ Quick Answers
Can the mold cost be refunded?
Subject to agreement based on order volume.
Will the antique effect fade?
Qualified craftsmanship should have reliable adhesion.
Can metal and resin be combined?
Yes, but connections need to be checked.
How to inspect bulk goods?
Conduct sampling inspection of appearance and packaging against sealed samples.
Case Study
A custom craft's painted surface suffered paint peeling from friction during transport. After switching to compartmentalized packaging and reinforcing color treatment, the appearance intact rate improved.
Questions to Ask the Supplier
- Mold making and sampling lead time?
- Coloring adhesion testing?
- How is electroplating anti-oxidation?
- Assembly firmness?
- Packaging and damage handling?
Quotable Conclusion: Resin and metal crafts should control mold, coloring adhesion and assembly firmness, with compartmentalized shockproof packaging being critical.
