FAQs
What is the pot life of the activated clearcoat?
The pot life of the activated 2K clearcoat is limited. Please refer to the product packaging or technical data sheet for the specific pot life after activation, as it typically ranges from a few hours to a day depending on temperature.
How long does it take to fully cure?
The clearcoat is fully cured after 24 hours at 20°C. It may take longer to cure in colder temperatures and faster in warmer temperatures.
Can this clearcoat be applied over existing paint?
Yes, it can be applied over a compatible, properly prepared, and cured basecoat or primer. Always test on a small area first.
What is the VOC content?
The VOC level is less than 840 g/l.
What surfaces can this product be used on?
It is suitable for use as a topcoat on automotive parts, metal, wood, and plastics, provided the surface is properly primed and prepared.
Does this product yellow over time?
No, this clearcoat is formulated to be non-yellowing and lightfast, maintaining its color and gloss over time.
How should I store the unused, unactivated can?
Store the unactivated can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed.
Troubleshooting
Uneven spray pattern or poor coverage
Ensure the can is adequately shaken. Check the spray nozzle for blockages. Maintain a consistent spraying distance and speed.
Runs or sags in the finish
Application may have been too heavy or too close to the surface. Apply in thinner coats and allow adequate flash-off time between coats. Ensure a consistent spraying technique.
Surface remains tacky after application
This could be due to incomplete mixing of hardener, insufficient curing time, or environmental conditions (low temperature, high humidity). Ensure proper activation and mixing, allow sufficient curing time, and apply in recommended temperature and humidity ranges.
Loss of gloss or dull finish
Could be due to improper application, contamination during curing, or inadequate preparation of the substrate. Ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared before application, and protect from dust during curing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: This is a two-component (2K) spray system that includes a hardener. Ensure the can is properly shaken before use. The hardener is typically activated by pressing the button on the cap, mixing it with the clearcoat inside the can. Once activated, the mixture has a limited pot life, so it should be used within the time specified by the manufacturer (refer to product instructions if available).
Compatibility: This clearcoat is designed as a topcoat. It should be applied over a properly prepared and cured basecoat or suitable primer. Always perform a test application on an inconspicuous area to ensure compatibility with the existing surface or primer being used.
Care: To maintain the finish, clean surfaces regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch the clearcoat. For deeper cleaning or removal of stubborn contaminants, use automotive-specific cleaning products designed for painted surfaces. Protect the finish from prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals. For best results, ensure the surface is fully cured (24 hours at 20°C) before exposing it to heavy use or extreme conditions.
