Okwesibini, i-coating iphakamisa i-aesthetics yento. Inokunika ukugqitywa okugudileyo, okucwebezelayo okanye kwe-matte, kuxhomekeke kwisigqibo esifunwayo. Oku kwenza ukuba into ibonakale ithandeka kwaye ikhangeleke. Iingubo nazo zineenzuzo zokusebenza. Inokubonelela nge-insulation, conductivity okanye ukuchasana ne-abrasion, ukushisa okanye iikhemikhali. Oku kuphucula ukusebenza kunye nokusebenza kwento okanye izinto eziphathekayo. Iimpawu eziphambili zeengubo ziquka ukuguquguquka kwazo kunye nokulungelelaniswa kwezinto ezahlukeneyo kunye neendawo. Inokusetyenziswa kwintsimbi, iplastiki, iglasi, umthi, kunye nelaphu. Ngokuxhomekeke kubume bento okanye izinto eziphathekayo, iingubo zingasetyenziswa ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo ezifana nokutshiza, ukuxubha okanye ukudipha.
