FAQs
What is the correct mixing ratio for the 1.10 L kit?
The 1.10 L kit contains 0.73 L paint, 0.18 L hardener, and 0.19 L thinner. Mix these components thoroughly as per the manufacturer's instructions.
How long does it take for the coating to be fully cured?
The coating is dust-dry in 1-1.5 hours, but requires approximately 7-8 days for a full cure.
Can I use this topcoat on wood or plastic surfaces?
This product is specifically engineered for vehicles, machinery, and metal structures. Compatibility with other substrates like wood or plastic is not specified and may require testing or consultation with the manufacturer.
What is the typical coverage rate?
Coverage rates can vary based on application method and surface porosity. Refer to the product's technical data sheet for specific coverage information.
Is this product suitable for interior use?
While it offers excellent resistance properties, its primary design is for demanding industrial and commercial environments, including outdoor exposure. Its suitability for interior use depends on specific requirements and ventilation.
What temperature range is recommended for application?
Always check the product's technical data sheet for specific temperature and humidity guidelines. Generally, it's best applied in temperatures between 10°C and 30°C.
How do I clean up spray equipment after use?
Clean spray equipment immediately after use with water and appropriate cleaning solvents as recommended by the equipment manufacturer or the paint supplier.
Troubleshooting
Poor adhesion to the substrate
Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and prepared before application. Verify compatibility with the underlying primer and that the primer was properly cured.
Uneven finish or spray pattern
Check spray equipment for blockages or incorrect settings. Ensure proper mixing ratios and viscosity. Adjust spray technique for consistent coverage.
Coating remains tacky or soft after expected drying time
Verify that the hardener was mixed in the correct ratio and that the ambient temperature and humidity are within the recommended application range. Ensure the product was not applied too thickly.
Surface scratches easily
Allow for the full cure time (7-8 days) before subjecting the surface to heavy use. Ensure the correct mixing ratio was used, as improper curing can affect hardness.
