Baker Wet Film Applicator

The Baker wet film applicator is used to apply coatings through a calibrated groove, forming a wet film of standard thickness on substrates. It is employed to test properties such as the hiding power and leveling ability of coatings, and is used in laboratories and production lines to control coating quality.
Selection
Consider the substrate type, paint viscosity range, and required wet film thickness specifications when making a selection. Stainless steel material is corrosion-resistant, and different specification scrapers cover thicknesses from 25 to 2000 μm. Match the groove depth according to actual testing requirements.
