Processing time/pot life:

• Ready to spray in 60 to 120 minutes at +20 ºC (68 ºF)

Application type "coat"

• Processing viscosity 4 mm for +20 ºC (68 ºF), German Industry Standardization 53211

Processing viscosity 4 mm gravity feed spraygun "Compliant" and "HVLP" is the mixed viscosity.

Adding 5 % Clear Coat Additive -LVM 007 000 A2- at +20 ºC (68 ºF) material temperature

Note

• When using as a clear coat for minimal damage repairs (clever repair procedure), 5 % Clear Coat Additive -LVM 007 000 A2- can be replaced with 5 % HS Spot Thinner -LVM 006 000 A2-.
• The mixture for the clever repair procedure

• Use a measuring stick to mix when pouring in the thinner.
• Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): "Compliant" 1.3 to 1.4 mm.
• Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): "HVLP" 1.3 to 1.4 mm.
• Set spray pressure (see manufacturer's information): "Compliant" to 2.0 to 2.5 bar.
• Set atomizing pressure (see manufacturer's information): "HVLP" 0.7 bar.

• Apply 1.5 spray applications. The first half spray application should form a thin, nearly complete film upon which a fully-completed spray application can be applied.
• Can be applied in two spray applications with a 5 to 10 minute intermediate ventilation time. The first spray application is applied lightly, but completely.

• The recommended dry layer thickness is between 50 and 70 um.

Drying
