Abstract

The invention relates to a method for coating a shaped component (3) having an inner side (12) and an outer side (9) with a first coating material on the inner side (12) and with a second coating material on the outer side (9), wherein a strip (13) at least of the outer side (9) remains uncoated in the region of a circumferential edge (6) that adjoins the inner side (12) and the outer side (9), and the first and second coating materials cannot be mixed with each other, in which method the component (3) is introduced into a holder and held fixed in its position there while the coating materials are applied one after the other by means of a spraying robot. The method is simplified and allows a reduction in the number of handling steps in that a plate (1) is used as the holder, said plate having a recess (2) with profiling (4, 5) formed above the height thereof, into which the component (3) is placed without the use of a movable fastening means, and the recess (2) is sealed off in such a manner that the first coating material that is sprayed from a first side (7) of the plate (1) does not reach the outer side (9) of the component and the second coating material that is sprayed from th…
