Description

High quality bicomponent acrylic transparent clear coat for fast repairs with low content of volatile compounds. Dedicated for small spot and  full body car repairs. Gives a deep shine of the surface and brings out the depth of the base color. It shows mechanical and UV radiation resistance.

Advantages

  • Very high solids content >55%.
  • Excellent look of the surface.
  • Easy application.
  • Very good spray mist absorption.
  • Perfect flow.

Substrates

Acrylic clear coats can be applied over:

  • Base coats.
  • Old finishes in good condition after matting and degreasing.

For dulling the color we recommend the following :

  • grey abrasive cloth with matting compound.
  • sanding paper with gradation of 600÷800 (for dulling on wet).
  • sanding paper with gradation of  360÷500 (for dulling by machine).

Application process

Use

Fast body car repairs which require permanent finish.

Mixing ratio by volume

Clear Coat: 2
Hardener: 1
Thinner for acrylic system: 0÷5%

Spraying viscosity

17÷19 seconds in 20°C DIN4

Pot life (double viscosity, clear coat is not suitable to use)

3,5 hour in 20°C (hardener standard)
2 hours in 20°C (hardener fast)

Number of layers

Number of layers: 1,5÷2x1
Gun parameters
RP Nozzle: 1,2÷1,4mm; Pressure: 2,0÷2,2 bar.
HVLP Nozzle: 1.3÷1,4mm; Pressure inside the nozzle: 2,0 bar.
Caution: follow the gun producer instructions.

Application process:
- 1,5 layer – 1 middle, thin, then full layer with keeping the distance of 2 min. for evaporation between the layers, to obtain the thickness of a dry film 50-60 µm,
- 2 layers – 2 full layers with evaporation time 5-10 min., to obtain the thickness of a dry film 60-75 μm,

Evaporation time

Standard
Between layers: 5-10 min
Before baking: 10 min

Fast:
Between layers: 5-10 min
Before baking: 10 min

Curing time

At 20°C
Dust free: 40 minutes.
Touch free: 3 hours
Useful hardness: 13 hours
Complete hardness: 7 days

At 60°C
Dust free: 10 minutes.
Touch free: 15 minutes
Useful hardness: 15 min + 4 hrs /20°C
Complete hardness: 15 min + 4 days /20°C

Temperatures below 20°C significantly decrease the drying time.

Drying with IR radiator

10÷15 minutes of short waves, depends from the type of the machine.
Do not exceed the temperature of 60oC.
Follow the producer instructions.
Wait about 10 minutes before drying with IR radiator.

Product efficiency

1 liter of the mixture is enough to get approx. 10 m2 of 60 μm thickness dry layer.

Shading

Make sure you have covered all the surface with the clear coat. You should only shade the surface that has been covered and treated. Use a FADE OUT THINNER to clean any dust or dirt from the surface and to level out the optical gloss differences between the older and new applied coating.

Polishing and removing impurities inclusions

Usually polishing is unnecessary, as the SPARK 07 gives the surface a perfect look immediately after use. If some dirt inclusions appear, it is recommended to remove them and polish with a polishing compound.

General notes

- Do not exceed recommended doses of the hardener!
- The best repair results can be achieved at room temperature. The temperature in the body shop and the temperature of the product should be similar.
- Use the efficient personal protection equipment during the 2K products application. Protect
eyes and the respiratory system.
- The rooms should be well ventilated.
- Tool should be washed after use.

Caution: To maintain safety, always follow the instructions given in the MSDS for the products.
