1. Bumper Primer (Clear): Premixed type
The primer provides a good support for the filler and primer surfacer. It is applied to the surface of the skirt.
2. PUTTY BOND QUICK MENDER
After the PP primer has dried thoroughly, apply the PUTTY BOND QUICK MENDER.
1. Mix one part of the mender (A) and one part of the hardener (B) and stir thoroughly.
NOTE: Do not mix the mender and hardener in excess of 20g (0.7oz) at a time.
2. Hardening starts immediately after mixing.
Practical hardness will be obtained within 60 minutes. The surface will be tacky within 5 minutes and nearly hardened after 15 minutes. It takes 12 hours for the surface to harden thoroughly 68 degrees F (20 degrees C).
3. Sanding can be done after:
3. Primer Surfacer
NOTE: Use a dual-liquid type bumper primer surfacer (gray).
- The primer surface is used to protect the PP resin surface and to fill cavities or flaws in the intermediate and top coats.
- Mix 10 parts of primer surfacer and 1 part of hardener. Add the specific thinner (30-60%) to the mixture of the hardener and primer to attain the proper viscosity for spraying.
4. Intermediate and Top Paint Coats (Body color and black paint)
NOTE:
- The paints are the dual liquid type based on the color chart.
- Measure the pigment and hardener as described so they are in correct ratio.
- Use the acrylic urethane paint prepared according to the mixing chart as the intermediate coat.
Mixing Ratio:
Mix 5 parts of body color pigment to 1 part of additive.
Mix 4 parts of the mixture of the pigment and additive
with 1 part of the hardener.
NOTE:
- Dilute the mixture with 40-50% of the specified thinner (Highart Thinner).
- Be sure to mix the correct amount of the additive.
- Use a spray gun to apply the paint. Do not use a brush.
WARNING:
- Ventilate when spraying paint. Most paint contains substances that are harmful if inhaled or swallowed. Read the paint label before opening the paint container.
- Avoid contact with skin. Wear an approved respirator, gloves, eye protection and appropriate clothing when painting.
- Paint is flammable. Store it in a safe place, and keep it away from sparks, flames or cigarettes.
