German term or phrase: Konservierungsmittel
Context:

"Konservierungsanlage ... für die Sprühapplikation des Konservierungsmittels"

"Sprühpistole und die Konservierungsmittel."

"Abluft der Konservierungskabine"

Obviously, Konservierungsmittel would normally be preservative, but here, the the context of a Konservierungskabine/Konservierungsanlage, I'm not too sure, especially given that at least one source translates Konservierungskabine as painting cabin:

Sandstrahl- und Konservierungskabinen
http://www.img-tech.de/_cmsdata/_cache/cms_132.html

Sand blasting and painting cabins
http://www.img-tech.de/_cmsdata/_cache/cms_1048.html

Could Konservierungsmittel be translated as paint here?

Ich glaube nicht, dass man hier Konservierungsmittel und -anstrich/auftrag (coating) gleichsetzen sollte.
