Substrate must be sanded with 120, 150 or 180 grit paper, free of dust and other contaminants. Before the application of the topcoat, the Basecoat must be sanded with a 280/320 grit paper. The Basecoat must be recovered within 8 hours following the sanding. This Basecoat must not be applied over metal, old finish or nitrocellulose lacquer.

Mix thoroughly and dilute as recommended. To assure consistency, this product should be stir continuously. The Basecoat can be applied in one or two layers. A good sanding between coats with paper 240/320 is needed to get a good adhesion. The Basecoat must be recovered within 8 hours after the sanding. When sanding, it is important not to wear through the surface and to pay particular attention to sharp edges of the profile. This can create a non-uniform thickness of the application. Avoid all contact with metallic surface. The dry film thickness of the Basecoat must not exceed 2 mils. The total dry film thickness of the system should not exceed 4 mils.

To obtain a complete cure, the system should be applied at an ambient temperature above 18°C and a relative humidity below 65%. During curing, this product should not be exposed to ammonia vapors. The finished surface cannot be cleaned with an ammonia-based product. Always use containers and equipment in plastic or stainless steel to eliminate any source of discoloration due to oxidation.
