Repainting Instructions
Impact on warranty
This product is approved for a repaint by Axis, provided that you follow the
instructions in this document and at axis.com/warranty-implication-when-
repainting.
Risks with repainting
There are several risks when disassembling or assembling an Axis product.
There is always a certain yield loss during assembly. Training of operators
and the use of correct tools mediate some of the problems but they can never
be fully avoided. Some of the risks include:
ESD Damage – Always handle the product in an ESD-safe environment. Even if
precautions are taken there is always a risk of ESD damage. The damage can
remain undetected and cause problems during the lifetime of the equipment.
Dust contamination – Opening a camera may expose the lens and sensor to dust
or paint. Dust will affect the optical performance. Lenses need to be
disassembled in a dust-free environment, preferably a clean room.
Paint overspray – Masking the different components of the equipment is
critical. Failure to mask sensitive areas can cause problems with assembling
the equipment. Any areas that are not painted at the factory or have a
different surface treatment than the rest of the parts (threads, ground, and
electrical contact surfaces) must also be masked to ensure function.
Repaint the product
Preparations
- If applicable, disassemble the device according to the instructions in this document.
- Clean all parts to be repainted thoroughly to remove grease, dust, or oil.
- To ensure reassembly and functionality of the product, mask any openings (for example screws, LED indicators, or microphones) before you paint.
Pretreatment of parts
Depending on the part material and type of paint applied at the factory,
different pretreatment should be done for the new paint to adhere as well as
possible. Clean the parts properly to remove oil, grease, and dust.
For more information on the materials used in the product, see its datasheet
at axis.com.
Powder-coated parts – Use a primer. Alternatively, remove the original powder
coating down to the base material, using fine sandpaper, and clean the parts
before painting.
Anodised and chromated parts – Use a primer.
Uncoated stainless steel – No special pretreatment is needed, but make sure
that the surface is clean before painting.
