Coating technology involves applying protective or decorative layers to surfaces using various methods such as spraying, brushing, or dipping. It is used in industries like manufacturing, automotive, and aerospace to improve durability, corrosion resistance, and appearance. Coating technicians often need knowledge of materials, surface preparation, and safety procedures.
