How 3D Scanning Spray Works
Why Use AESUB 3D Scanning Spray?
AESUB 3D scanning spray provides a matte coating on hard-to-scan surfaces. The barrier helps turn hard-to-scan surfaces into ones the 3D scanner can read more easily, resulting in smoother, more precise 3D models than scanning the untreated object.
Compared to chalk, talc, or developer spray, AESUB 3D scanning spray:
- requires no cleaning (when using vanishing sprays)
- has no residue in crevices
- can controlled thickness
- is safe for sensitive parts
- is free of titanium dioxide
- is free of pigments (except AESUB White)
Helps to Scan Difficult Surfaces
3D Scanning Sprays as Liquids
AESUB Yellow for Metrology
AESUB Yellow is applied using an airbrush for small surfaces and provides a coating thickness of less than 1 micron, making it ideal for scanning parts that require the highest accuracy.

AESUB Green is a vanishing scanning spray applied via spray gun, delivering a uniform, non-reflective finish on challenging surfaces and then disappearing automatically. Designed for large object scanning, it supports long scan times with even surface coverage.
