Application Instructions

Base Surface

Suitable base surfaces:

• Sheet steel that has been cleaned, sanded and primed with Two-Part Wash Primer -LHV 043 000 A2- or One-Part Wash Primer -LVM 044 007 A2-/-LVM 044 171 A2-, galvanized/electrolytically zinced sheet steel or soft aluminum.
• Finely sanded, thoroughly cleaned, original factory primer.
• Sanded factory paint or old paint (except TPA).
• Surfaces prepared with two-part polyester products and then sanded very fine.
• Cleaned and sanded UP-GF base surfaces, free of separating agents.

Pre-treatment of base surfaces:

• Carefully clean using Silicone Remover -LVM 020 000 A5- or Silicone Remover, Long -LVM 020 100 A5-.

• Sand the factory- or old paint.
• Thoroughly remove any potential rust spots and sand any transitions to old paint.

• Use a suitable cleaning agent before reworking to ensure a clean and residue-free surface.

Processing

Activating the Two-Part Spray Can:

• Shake before using.

• Remove the red push button on the cap and set it on the valve for the hardener mixture on the bottom of the can.

• Press in the valve for the hardener mixture. Make sure when pressing down the valve for the hardener mixture that the can is upside down.

• Shake the can thoroughly for two minutes.

Processing time/pot life:

• Eight hours at +20 ºC (68 ºF)

Application type "coat"

Apply two to three spray applications to cover with a 5 to 10 minute intermediate ventilation time.

Spraying distance:

• Maintain a distance of 20 to 25 cm.
• The recommended dry layer thickness is approximately 80 to 120 um.

Note

If the spraying procedure is interrupted, make sure that the valve above the spray head is empty to prevent any nozzle blockage.

Drying

Air drying at +20 ºC (68 ºF) room temperature is:

• Three to four hours for a dry layer thickness of 80 to 120 um.

The drying time with forced drying is at least 5 to 15 minutes.

Forced drying at +60 ºC (140 ºF) object temperature is 30 to 40 minutes for a layer thickness of 80 to 120 um.

The drying time for IR drying is a minimum of 5 to 10 minutes.

IR drying for a layer thickness of 80 to 120 um is 10 minutes with a short-wave heater and 15 minutes with a medium-wave heater.

Further Processing

• Dry-sand with rotary sander and dust extraction. P400-500 grit sandpaper.

• Wet-sand with P800-1000 grit sandpaper

Reworking

Can be painted over with:

• Two-part HS top coats
• Water-based base paint and two-part HS clear coat

Note

• Any faults in the base surface can be "filled" with two-part polyester filler.
• After drying and intermediate sanding, the filled patches can be re-insulated using Two-Part Epoxy Primer Filler -LLS MAX 220 M1/M2- or a two-part HS premium filler.
• The best insulation, even with critical surfaces, is achieved with a medium layer of 80 to 120 um is applied in two to three spray applications, with air-drying overnight, or oven/IR drying. With critical surfaces, fine preparation is required and the parts must be evenly filled.
• The Two-Part HS Vario Filler -LGF 786 004 A4- (gray) is recommended for insulating thermoplastic coatings.

Caution

For work safety, wear appropriate, personal protective equipment.

Note the safety data sheets as well as the warnings on the label of the spray nozzle.

Shake briefly again before every subsequent spray application.

Dispose of the empty spray cans as recyclable material.
