If a uniform illuminated surface is required from LED points of light but the results are disappointing, this is often a result of the processes used up to now: health-threatening etching methods, high-expenditure film wraps or dirty sand-blasting are often accompanied by serious loss of light intensity. WB Quantum Diffusion scatter paint does what it says: irrespective of the shape of the object, and with remarkably little effort, lamp elements made of standard glass or plastic can be coated to create lighting effects with high transmission rates and scatter effects.
Since filament lamps were banned, the lighting industry has been focussing on improving other alternatives in terms of decorative effects and physical lighting. End users and manufacturers are not satisfied with the light diffusion abilities of LED technology, which, in other aspects, is a market leader: it is only feasible to make the individual points of light blend into a holistic diffused effect if complex methods are employed, while this was an easy matter with filament, halogen and even energy-saving lamps.

The new WB Quantum Diffusion scatter paint requires only very little application effort to achieve high levels of diffusion and, as a result, homogeneous lighting surfaces. Furthermore, the manufacturer, WB coatings, promises far better transmission of LED light in comparison with etched or sand-blasted glass surfaces, depending on the thickness of the paint applied. This increases the amount of light transmitted while reducing energy losses from reflections. It is even possible to remove fingerprints and other household soiling easily and quickly.
In contrast to the methods described above, the shape of the luminous element plays no part when the painting method is applied. The waterborne single-component diffusion paint is fixed by a 20-minute curing phase at 170 °C. If the substrate is plastic, it is only necessary to apply the two-pack paint system which provides the same diffusion characteristics but without an additional fixative process.

"With our diffusion paint, we are able to provide the lighting and advertising industries with a high-grade product that answers the questions posed but, as yet, not satisfactorily answered", enthuses Dirk Mollenhauer, Managing Director of WB coatings, and continues: "Our paint has at least one positive side effect in favour of our partners in the Painting & Varnishing Guild. Using WB Quantum Diffusion, they have the opportunity to activate new order potential that has been held up to now by producers of other production systems."
