General details Notes on the manual



This brochure is intended to provide an overview of the industrial painting process. Salcomix offers a comprehensive industry product range which allows spray painters to select the work processes which are ideal for their own production. It is by selecting and specialising in particular products and processes that profitable and cost-effective refinishing is ensured. One of the main factors in achieving a good refinishing result is to ensure compliance with the recommended application data such as mixing ratios, film thickness, viscosity, drying time etc. Section > 5 < (sub-divided into product groups) contains a technical data sheet for all the products mentioned in the individual processes, specifying the necessary application data and any additional special notes. In particular, please note the comments on faster and slower reducers which will enable you to adjust the product used specifically to the working conditions in your bodyshop. The workload involved in a refinishing job depends on the condition of the old paintwork and the customer’s requirements: A good refinishing result is characterised by a good finish quality, which means that body-filling and priming operations must include careful fine sanding. In plastics refinishing, the paint materials to be used must be specially adjusted to the properties, for example the elasticity, of the plastics to be refinished. The blend-in technique is necessary or recommended when the refinishing of a part (panel repair) would result in a visible colour difference. Another option is colour matching, but blending in is generally less time-consuming and less expensive.

Tips for colour matching



Checking the colour To do a good repair job, it is sometimes necessary to match the colour by tinting, blending in, or polishing the old paintwork. Therefore, careful comparison between the new paint and the original finish is essential. Any difference in colour must be corrected by tinting. The correction must be done using the mixing formula of the colour concerned. You may use only the mixing bases contained in the mixing formula for tinting, or the reduced bases indicated in the tinting guide.

An adequate colour comparison can only be carried out on a sprayed (not handpainted) dry paint film (including the clearcoat in the case of metallic finishes) and must be done in daylight or under a daylight lamp. TPC-ACR / -PUR topcoats can be compared already after a few minutes drying. In the case of metallic colours, the spray-out (sample) as well as the actual spraying should be done by the same person. Due to weathering, age and washing, almost all paint finishes are subject to changes in appearance and colour. This is caused by the absorption of dirt or by external influences (temperature, humidity, UV radiation, acid rain etc.). These effects can in most cases be removed by polishing.

Repairing basecoat/clearcoat finishes is more difficult as the colour and the brightness of the metallic effect strongly depend on application factors such as: 1. the diameter of the spraygun nozzle and the spraying pressure.

With a small nozzle and high spraying pressure, the atomisation is finer. This produces a lighter colour.

2. the thinner used and the spray viscosity. With a rather fast thinner, the silver effect achieved is usually more brilliant than that obtained with a rather slow thinner. The higher the viscosity, the coarser the spray pattern, which increases the risk of clouding.

3. the spraying technique When you spray rather dry, or apply a dust coat, this makes the colour lighter and more metallic. When you spray rather wet, the colour appears fuller and darker. Within these variants, you find the full range of nuances as regards metallic effect and colour.

4. the distance of the spraygun from the object to be painted. When the distance is short, the paint film will be wetter, and the colour will be darker and more chromatic. A wider distance will result in a drier film and a lighter and more metallic colour.

Colouralterations It can happen that carmakers slightly alter an OEM colour for technical or colour-related reasons without changing the code or name of the colour. Furthermore, production-related colour fluctuations can occur (for example when paints from different production plants or of different quality etc. are used).

Practically the values can differ. Line 648 PUR or 603 ACR can also be gloss reduced with Line 732. How to find the right measuring geometry: measure the surface with a 60° angle, if the value is between 10 and 70 units move on with this angle. A value above 70 units with 60° should be measured with a 20° angle, a result below 10 units has to be measured with a 85° angle.

How to produce textured surfaces



Textured paints are generally used for a very wide range of applications. In the coating of machinery, equipment, control panels, steel cabinets, vending machines, laboratory apparatus, office furniture, household appliances and objects of all kinds, textured paints provide finishes which are resistant to ageing, protect the surface and have a decorative function. The different textures, which can be achieved by altering parameters such as viscosity, spraying and material pressure, nozzle, distance from the object, and spraying equipment, are just as varied as the fields of application. Coarse textures are achieved at low pressure with a large nozzle whilst fine textures are obtained at high pressure with a small nozzle.

- coarse texture: nozzle 1.8 – 2.0 mm; material pressure 1.5 bar, spraying pressure 2 – 2.5 bar - fine texture: nozzle 1.5 mm; material pressure 1.5 bar, spraying pressure 3 – 4 bar

The figures indicated in this document can be varied and are for guidance only. The texture desired should be established by trial and error and altering the relevant parameters. The below mentioned textured methods are also featured in the Salcomix Texture Swatch. In order to achieve a uniform textured effect it is advisable to apply a preliminary spraycoat to obtain a smooth surface (if necessary at a higher pressure or at a smooth-surface setting) and create the textured effect with the second spraycoat. If you want to create a textured effect with two spraycoats, allow sufficient flash-off time in between or else the texture will flow. As opposed to standard topcoats, textured paints are applied at a higher viscosity level. That is why in this context it is expedient to use pressurised material feed systems such as pressure-fed sprayguns or pressure pots.






Method: Salcomix 821 Acrylic Topcoat: Salcomix 821 Topcoat is an acrylic topcoat with a satin gloss finish. The surfaces achieved with it are hard yet elastic and physically resistant. Another advantage is the good UV resistance, thus making it unnecessary to re-coat the texture. By altering the setting it is possible to apply material in textures from smooth (4 : 1 : 1) to coarse (8 : 1 with SC29-0823). The methods mentioned here always assume that one spraycoat is applied to achieve a smooth surface (step 1) before the texturising coat is applied. Step 1: 1x preliminary spraycoat to obtain a smooth surface, 4 : 1 : 1 by vol. SC29-0844 / SV13-0732

Fine texture: 100 : 20 : 10 by weight SC29-0844 / SV13-0732 RP 1.6 mm, 0.2 – 0.4 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: flat spray jet (cross coat) Distance from object: 30 – 50 cm Medium texture: 100 : 20 by weight SC29-0844 Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm 0.9 bar material pressure and 1.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: flat spray jet Distance from object: 50 – 60 cm Coarse texture: 100 : 10 by weight SC29-0823 Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm 0.9 bar material pressure and 1 - 1.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: round spray jet Distance from object: 40 – 60 cm






Method: Salcomix 595 Epoxy Topcoat: Salcomix 595 Topcoat is an epoxy resin-based topcoat with a satin gloss finish. The surfaces achieved with it can vary from slightly coarse and medium to very coarse. It may be necessary to use various hardeners (SC65-0810 as texturising hardener) and in some cases additives as well (GJ50-0067 thickener), depending on the method. The feature typical of epoxy materials is their low UV resistance. Epoxy topcoats tend to suffer from chalking, loss of gloss, and yellowing after only a short period of time outdoors. Although the technological properties remain intact, the surface finish deteriorates. As a result, more weather-resistant materials (e.g. acrylic or PU topcoats) are applied afterwards when coating equipment, machinery, etc. which is stored outdoors or exposed to sunlight. Owing to the higher film thickness achieved with 595 Epoxy used as a textured paint it is essential to ensure good drying before re-coating (at least 60 min. at 60°C – 80°C or 30 min. at 60°C – 80°C and drying overnight at 20°C). As with the previous method, here too a preliminary spraycoat is applied before the texture in order to achieve a smooth surface: Step 1: 1x preliminary spraycoat to obtain a smooth surface, 4 : 1 : 2 by vol. SC65-0731 / SV32-0482 Slightly coarse texture: 4 : 1 by vol. SC65-0731, Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm, 0.9 bar material pressure and 2.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: flat spray jet Distance from object: 15 – 20 cm Medium texture: 4 : 1 + 5% SC65-0810 / SV32-0482, pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm, 1 bar material pressure and 1 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: (virtually) round spray jet Distance from object: 30 – 40 cm Coarse texture: 595 + 10% GJ50-0067 by weight, 4 : 1 by vol. SC65-0810, Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm, 1 bar material pressure and 1.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: round spray jet Distance from object: 30 – 50 cm Very coarse texture: 595 + 20% GJ50-0067 by weight, 4 : 1 by vol. SC65-0810, Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm, 1 bar material pressure and 1.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: round spray jet Distance from object: 30 – 50 cm






Method: Salcomix 901 VOC Acrylic Topcoat: Salcomix 901 VOC Topcoat is an acrylic high-solids topcoat with a satin gloss finish. Similar to the 821 converter, the surfaces achieved with this material are hard yet elastic and physically resistant. Another advantage is the good UV resistance, thus making it unnecessary to re-coat the texture here as well. The methods mentioned here always assume that one spraycoat is applied to achieve a smooth surface (step 1) before the texturising coat. Step 1: 1x preliminary spraycoat to obtain a smooth surface, 6 : 1 + 25% SC29-0331 / SV13-0732 Slightly coarse texture: 6 : 1 by vol. SC29-0331, RP 1.6 mm, 0.6 - 1 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: flat spray jet Distance from object: 15 – 20 cm Slightly coarser texture: 6 : 1 by vol. SC29-0331, Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm, 1 bar material pressure and 1.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: flat spray jet Distance from object: 30 – 50 cm Coarse texture: 901 + 10% GJ50-0067* 6 : 1 by vol. SC29-0331, Pressure-fed spraygun 1.5 mm, 1 bar material pressure and 1.5 bar spraying pressure Spray pattern: round spray jet Distance from object: 30 – 50 cm *Alternatively, 20% can also be added. Salcomix Texture Paste GJ50-0032 – By adding 50% by weight to 603, 648, 650, 656 topcoat etc. a film is achieved which is finely textured. Application can be performed using a conventional spraygun (2 spraycoats). Fine texture: Topcoat system + 50% GJ50-0032, afterwards use the mixing ratio according to technical data sheet. 1x preliminary spraycoat to obtain a smooth surface, RP 1.4 mm, 2.5 bar, flash off for 10-15 minutes and repeat.

Additional Information regarding handling and usage of the GJ50- Salcomix Dispersions

- Homogenize:

Before first use of the Salcomix Dispersions in a mixing shelf or automatic mixing machine (i.e. Corob Machine), it is mandatory to shake or agitate the can for at least 10 minutes in an automatic mixer or shaker to assure a homogenous dispersion.

- Single Stage Metallic Colors:

a) More than 15% of Metallic Dispersions in glossy single stage metallic’s (i.e. RAL 9006 in line 603) lead to gloss reduction

b) On the other hand more than 15% of Metallic Dispersions are needed in single stage

metallic’s in matt technologies (i. e. 732 topcoat) to achieve the required effect.

- Mixing Ratio Converter / Dispersions

The mentioned mixing ratios in the technical data sheets between converter and dispersion have to be followed (i.e. 65:35; 80:20; 85:15; 95:5;: 98:2) to maintain the properties of the products. Changes in these ratios should be discussed with Salcomix Customer Service before.

- Matting of Topcoats:

a) Matting Agent Salcomat 2 should be added into the mixed color (it should not be part of

the mixing formula). b) Alternatively we recommend matting of topcoats by using converter 732, see table in

Salcomix handbook 2.3 “Matt Topcoats”.

- To weigh in / Mixing of colors

After adding GJ50-dispersions to the converter it is strictly foreseen to stir the product immediately very thoroughly or shake it in a gyroscopic mixer to get a homogenously stirred topcoat

The pre-treatment of substrates and old paintwork



Basic cleaning Producing a high-quality finish begins with proper pre-treatment of the substrate. Basic cleaning is the first step: all dirt must be thoroughly removed. Sometimes you will have to use special additives to dissolve protective wax. In all cases, however, the last rinsing operation must be carried out using clear water, preferably in combination with a high-pressure vapour jet cleaner. Pre-treatment There are two different pre-treatment methods. Chemical pre-treatment Chemical pre-treatment is used mainly on aluminium and steel. The pre-treatment agent is sprayed on starting at the bottom of the vehicle and finishing at the top to ensure that the acidic pre-treatment agent can act evenly on the surface. Within 15 minutes the acid will attack the metal surface to remove any substances from the substrate that might impair adhesion. The products of this attack, acid and dissolved contaminants, will produce water-soluble foam which must not be left to dry before it is thoroughly washed off. The safest and quickest method is by means of a hot-water high-pressure vapour-jet cleaner. This pre-treatment method gives a substrate with fine pores that is thinly covered with phosphate, ensuring excellent adhesion of Salcomix primer fillers.

Mechanical pre-treatment Steel and aluminium Mechanical manual pre-treatment requires great effort on aluminium and steel. For steel parts such as chassis, grit blasting with grit sized 0.2 to 0.5 mm is the most efficient method of pre-treatment. For shot blasting aluminium you must use only abrasive material that is iron-free, for instance glass beads. The surface roughness should not exceed 50 microns. If neither grit blasting nor chemical pre-treatment can be used, the only remaining alternative is degreasing with Salcomix Metal Cleaner SV22-0500 and manual sanding and de-rusting. This is not only more time-consuming than shot-blasting but also much more tedious, and rather risky, too, for negligence easily sets in with this type of pre-treatment. Every single weld-seam corner or bead must be degreased and sanded intensively. The use of rotating steel brushes is consequently recommended for these difficult areas. Another important function accrues to the SV22-0500 Metal Cleaner. It must dissolve and remove water-soluble salts, grease, oil, oxides, metal filings and other contaminants. Only a special blend of solvents, such as Salcomix Metal Cleaner SV22-0500, will reliably remove this type of contamination. Galvanised steel There are 3 different methods of zinc-plating steel, a fact that must be taken into account for the pre-treatment.


Matrices Industry




Plastics The last category under this heading are plastics. In the CV sector the most commonly used types of plastics are glass-fibre reinforced polyesters made by different processes. A pore-free variety is sheet moulding compounds (SMC). They are made from polyester sheets filled with glass-fibre that are moulded at high pressure and elevated temperature. They can be exposed to temperatures of up to 160°C. Another variety is manually laminated GRP panels moulded without high pressure. They are porous and heat-sensitive. The air bubbles trapped inside during the manufacturing process burst when the material is heated to more than 50°C. Consequently it makes sense not to force-dry this type of panels in the oven, or to heat them prior to painting for 30 minutes at 60°C panel temperature. Special care must be taken when finishing PU (polyurethane) or PP/EPDM plastics. Both materials must be pre-cleaned thoroughly with Salcomix Silicone Remover. Then carefully sand them with P600 paper and re-clean with Silicone Remover. Heating for 60 minutes at 50°C will prevent loss of adhesion due to sweating of mould release agents. After heating, re-clean the panels with Salcomix Silicone Remover. Before applying the paint system, you must spray on an adhesion promoter, and the primer filler and topcoat that follow must be properly plasticized. Badly weathered or cracked paintwork must be sanded down to a sound surface.

Note: Painting PP/EPDM plastics is not without risk: PP/EPDM plastics are blends of polypropylene (PP), which cannot be painted, and ethylene-propylene-diene mixed polymers (EPDM), which can be painted. When the PP share dominates, the plastic material is considered to be unpaintable. Panel manufacturers are unable to guarantee consistent composition of the material. As a result, BASF cannot accept any liability in cases of loss of adhesion on PP/EPDM panels. 4.3.5 Sanding equipment The abrasive grit consists of aluminium oxide or silicon carbide. Papers manufactured according to the FEPA standard are available with grit ranging from P16 to P1200. Sanding papers are coated electro-statically. This ensures an even distribution of the abrasive material with the points upwards, and such paper is much more effective. P-coded papers are available with a variety of backings, the letters A to E identify the thickness of the backing material.

Basic conditions for paint application



The painting result depends on various factors. The spraybooth

The condition of the spraybooth (combi-booth) has a decisive effect on the painting result. The air needed must be supplied through appropriate filters and distributed evenly in the booth. If the flow of air is too strong, the air vortexes produced will hold overspray for too long. Dried overspray will contaminate the finish applied. If the air speed is too high, i.e. clearly beyond 0.2 m/s, or if the flow is unbalanced due to defects in air ducts, the following paintwork defects might occur: a) loss of gloss b) wrinkling c) microscopic pinholes Such defects result when the finish applied dries too fast on the surface. Spraybooths do not require a high air supply level because slight overpressure (5 mm water column or 5 pascal (Pa) is enough to prevent unfiltered air from streaming into the booth (through windows and/or doors). Spraying temperature The optimum application temperature for undercoat materials and topcoats is 18 to 20°C at a relative air humidity of 50 to 75%. Lower temperatures will slow down the drying process. In temperatures below +15°C, drying will take twice as long as indicated in this manual. Lower temperatures will in addition have an adverse effect on the lattice structure that is built up in 2K products by chemical cross-linking. Furthermore, the resistance to solvents and chemicals will be reduced. In relatively high temperatures (above +25°C), hardeners and thinners marked "slow" must be used to prevent pinholing and poor flow and overspray absorption. Spraying pressure (bar) The spraying air used must always be free from oil and water. Appropriate equipment, i.e. oil and water separators, is available from spraygun manufacturers. A shop in which 3 spraypainters work with a basic spraying pressure of 4 to 4.5 bar will need an air volume of approx. 1200 l/min. To obtain an air supply level of approx. 1,200 l/min., compressed air pipes (main and circulation lines) should have a minimum diameter of 1 inch for lengths of up to 50 m and 1.5 inches for lengths of up to 150 m. Compressed air pipes with a smaller diameter will not be able to produce a pressure of 4 to 4.5 bar. This, on the other hand, will lead to poor flow and slow down the painting process.

Interior spraybooth walls The interior walls of spraybooths must be smooth to prevent dust from settling on them. Options are walls plastered with mortar and smoothed with a solvent-resistant PU coating, coated metal panelling or tiled stone walls. Note on transfer efficiency Spraying paints using different spraying methods is daily routine work. The reduction of organic solvents and the desire to minimise waste have an increasingly strong effect on the selection of coating processes. In this context, transfer efficiency is an important factor to help reach a decision. Transfer efficiency The figures listed below are average levels, with the transfer efficiency depending on the spraying method used and the surface quality and size of the object being sprayed. - Conventional high-pressure spraying : 35 – 50% - Airless spraying : 50 – 65% - Electrostatic spraying with compressed air : 60 – 85% without compressed air : 80 – 95% - CED, EC : 90 – 98% - Dipping : 80 – 90% Airless Airless spraying means that the paint material is pressed through a nozzle at pressure levels above 200 bar. No compressed air is needed to atomise and/or convey the paint droplets. Airless sprayguns come complete with a nozzle insert that swirls the paint prior to atomisation. The atomiser nozzle itself is designed as a slit nozzle and adjusts the width of the spray jet. Once the paint material has left the nozzle, it is torn apart and moves on towards the object being painted at unchanged high speed. In general, the distance between spraygun and object being painted is approx. 30 cm. The spray jet is clearly defined. It is not possible to adjust the flow at the gun. Pneumatic piston pumps have become generally accepted for airless spraying. In special cases, electrically driven equipment is used.


Matrices Industry




Advantages and drawbacks of airless spraying Benefits: - high film thickness achieved with one spraycoat - allows very fast working - very low exposure to spray mist - little overspray Drawbacks: - very clearly defined spray jet resulting in overlapping problems - flow cannot be adjusted during spraying - short useful life of nozzles - equipment difficult to handle - relatively coarse paint atomisation (finish has its own texture) - textured finish (orange peel). Atomisation is strongly influenced by paint viscosity, nozzle diameter, spraying angle and material pressure at the nozzle outlet. The majority of paint shops use piston pumps with transmission ratios ranging from 1:28 to 1:32. Conclusion: Suitable for CV finishing only in special cases (chassis, container boxes). Airmix: airless combined with pneumatic atomisation Airmix units are hydraulic atomisers which work in such a way that the paint mist passes not only the atomiser nozzle, but also an air stream that has a pressure of up to 2 bar. This produces a less clearly defined spray jet and finer paint droplets. On the whole, this method requires a lower material pressure (approx. 60 bar) than airless spraying. It produces more overspray than airless, but clearly less overspray than pneumatic spraying. The piston pumps work at ratios ranging from 1:12 to 1:16.

Air atomisation using membrane pumps/pressure pots Pneumatic spraying with membrane pumps is easier than using pressure pot units as far as handling is concerned. The material is conveyed by means of a membrane pump. The operation of this pump requires a minimum air pressure of 2 bar. One end of the material supply hose is immersed in the paint container. The material pressure required is 0.5 to 2.5 bar, depending on the diameter of the nozzle used. Normal paint jobs, for example on chassis, can be done with a normal membrane pump. High-quality finish jobs will require a double membrane pump and, in addition, a material fine pressure regulator to compensate the pump lifts. One unit is sufficient to supply 2 guns. Benefits: - easy material supply - easy monitoring of material consumption - quick cleaning thanks to bypass. Drawbacks: - normal membrane pump supplies paint in batches due to pump lifts. HVLP spraygun (pressure pot) HVLP = high volume at low pressure For spraypainters, this means that they have to change their spraying technique. 1. shorter distance: approx. 20 cm 2. larger overlaps 3. lower noise during spraying Here the atomising pressure, which used to be 3 to 5 bar, is reduced to 0.7 bar at the nozzle. This means first of all larger paint droplets and a different spray pattern. Clearly less overspray is produced, and the transfer efficiency is increased by 50% compared to conventional sprayguns. The use of this spraying method can save up to 20% material.


Matrices Industry




Electrostatically supported spraying In principle, electrostatically supported spraying systems are designed in the same way as conventional spraying systems. In addition, there is a high-voltage electrode in the paint channel. This electrode is up to 10 mm longer than the nozzle and loads the paint material electrostatically. An electric field is built up between the object being painted and the gun, and this field determines the direction in which the paint particles will move. For this spraying method, the object to be painted must absolutely be earthed to make it act as a positive pole that will attract the negatively charged paint particles. It must be considered that there may be recessed areas and structures with angles into which electrostatically charged paint particles are not able to penetrate (Faraday cage). To obtain acceptable finishing results in such areas, the electrostatics function must be switched off. The switch needed to do so should be on the gun. Always use relatively slow reducers for electrostatic spraying. Electrostatic airless spraying is particularly suitable for painting chassis and similar objects. Benefits: - reduced paint consumption, efficient working - reliable edge cover thanks to good throwing power - shorter spraying times Drawbacks: - granular surface - cavities difficult to spray - spraypainter must get used to a new spraying technique - too thick coats on edges - additional safety regulations

Faults in application and paintwork defects



General information Despite the great care taken in the development, production and testing of CT finishing products, their resistance has natural limits which are determined by application conditions and external factors. To make full use of the properties of our tried and tested high-quality coating products, these must be applied carefully and correctly. Experience has shown that the resistance of a finish to weather and other influences increases with the number of coats applied. In practice, however, the number of individual coats is limited by the need for efficiency. Our systems take into account both aspects. Paintwork defects due to faults in application:

- coats are omitted although recommended - recommended film thicknesses are not observed - use of products not adapted to each other - the prescribed thinners are not used - the specified drying and/or flash-off times are not observed. Basic rules: To avoid paintwork defects that will become visible only later, working processes and conditions should be checked continuously. 1. The surface to be painted must be clean, dry and free from grease. 2. The specified flash-off and drying times must be observed. 3. Sanding residues, especially salt residues, should be avoided or removed. The water used for

sanding must be changed frequently. Sanded surfaces must absolutely be washed again with clean water and wiped dry.

4. Moisture remaining from sanding must fully evaporate (allow 2 hours at 20°C or longer in lower temperatures).

5. Sweat from hands on the surface to be painted or individual coats must absolutely be avoided. 6. The spraying air must be dry. Empty the water and oil separator daily. 7. The temperature in the workshop should not be below +15°C, the relative air humidity not above

75%. 8. Temperature of vehicles to be finished must be adjusted to ambient temperature.

(Place them in the spraybooth overnight.)


Matrices Industry




Bilstering Definition: In wet weather, paint finishes will absorb small quantities of water vapour, which will evaporate again in dry weather (osmosis). Humidity blisters can occur in different shapes, sizes, patterns and numbers between the individual coats of the finish, but also between the paint system and the substrate. The paint film is undamaged. In dry weather, the blisters will disappear again, especially when exposed to warmth, for example sunshine or wind. Causes:

1. The surfaces to be painted, i.e., surfacer patches, bare metal and so on, have not been cleaned sufficiently. Dirty sanding water or sweat from hands can leave water-binding salts on the substrate. In unfavourable cases, wiping traces can produce small blisters aligned like pearls on a string in the topcoat. This type of blisters occurs especially in cases in which fresh refinishes are exposed to high humidity.

2. The protecting paint finish was damaged mechanically and humidity has crept under the finish from the damage.

3. Wet sanding of polyester products without sufficient flash-off times before the basecoat or topcoat was applied.

4. Temperature of (especially aluminium) vehicles above dew point (below spray room temperature). Result: invisible condensation on substrates that will later lead to the delamination of the whole paint system.

How to avoid:

Ad 1) Wash the surfaces to be painted with clean water using a hot-water high-pressure jet cleaner. Then clean again with Salcomix Silicone Remover and/or Salcomix Thinner. Apply products observing the prescribed film thicknesses and allow sufficient drying times.

Ad 3) Do not wet sand polyester products. Ad 4) Bring vehicles to spray room temperature (place them in the spray room/application area

overnight or blow in air with a temperature of 50 - 60°C for 2 hours). Repair: Remove the paint system by intense sanding down to the coat from which the blisters originated. Refinish the sanded areas using the recommended priming and finishing products.


Matrices Industry




Bleeding Definition: Bleeding leads to the discoloration of the topcoat, often producing a redder or yellower colour shade. Causes:

1. Soluble pigments (colorants) from the original finish are dissolved by the solvent contained in the refinishing materials used and change the colour of the surface.

2. Bleeding can also occur when excessive peroxide from polyester body fillers is dissolved by the solvents contained in the paint subsequently applied. In this case, the peroxide reacts with the pigments and produces a yellowish brownish stain mark of the size of the body filler patch below. Bleeding occurs most frequently in blue, green and metallic finishes.

3. Bitumen or tar residues have not been completely removed from the old paintwork. How to avoid: The best way to avoid bleeding is to spray finishes that tend to bleed with a sealer (e.g., Salcomix Epoxy Primer Filler) and to use no more than the prescribed quantity of peroxide when mixing it with polyester body fillers. Repair: In cases of minor bleeding defects, seal the whole panel being refinished with Salcomix Epoxy Primer Filler. In more severe cases of bleeding, the paint system will have to be sanded off completely in the area affected, and the sanded area must be completely refinished.


Matrices Industry




Spotting Definition: Etching or discoloration of the finish caused by aggressive substances, e.g., industrial waste gas, resins, petrol or chemicals, which at worst destroy the finish. Causes:

1. Tar can cause discoloration when substances contained in it penetrate the surface of the finish and settle as dirty brown black spots.

2. Industrial waste gas and chemicals penetrate into the finish and change the colour of the topcoat. This type of discoloration is caused by a chemical reaction (for example of acids) with the pigments contained in the topcoat.

3. Natural substances such as resins, insect bodies and bird droppings can attack paint finishes. Depending on how long they act on the finish, they can cause etching to such an extent that the paint system will be decomposed and thus destroyed in the affected area.

How to avoid: To avoid spotting, vehicles should be washed at rather short intervals and polished with protecting agents from time to time. Foreign substances such as bird droppings, lubricants and fuel must be removed regularly to avoid etching. Repair: Minor spotting defects can often be removed by simple polishing and sealing with a polishing product. If there are larger spots, however, the damaged coat must be sanded off, and the sanded area has to be completely refinished.


Matrices Industry




Delamination: Definition: Delamination can manifest itself in two different ways: there can either be a lack of adhesion between the substrate and the whole paint system or a lack of intercoat adhesion (between the individual coats). Causes: Delamination can occur when 1. substances which can cause delamination were left on the substrate when it was painted (e.g.,

silicone, oil, grease, wax, rust, sanding residues); 2. an unsuitable primer was applied to the substrate; 3. the substrate was sanded insufficiently or not at all; 4. undercoat materials or basecoat were applied too dry or too thin (paint film does not cover

substrate completely); 5. too short flash-off time or too thick spraycoats, especially as regards the basecoat in metallic

basecoat/clearcoat systems; 6. the substrate was moist because the dew point was exceeded.

The dew point is the temperature at which the water vapour contained in the air reaches the state of saturation and begins to condense. This happens especially with extreme temperature changes and/or in spring and autumn.

This is why the objects to be painted absolutely have to reach room temperature before any paint product is applied. Special care must be taken when the substrates to be painted are made of aluminium. How to avoid: To avoid delamination, you should choose the right primer for difficult substrates (e.g., aluminium and plastics), apply undercoat materials in sufficiently thick coats and respect the manufacturers' instructions when processing the products. Never spray too dry and, when applying thick coats, allow sufficient flash-off times for the individual coats. The objects to be painted must have the same temperature as the room in which they will be painted (+18-20°C). Repair: Completely remove all loose coats by sanding and apply a new finish.


Matrices Industry




Pinholes Definition: Pinholes are small blisters with a microscopic hole in the centre. Causes: Pinholes can have different causes: 1. Coats applied too thick. 2. Use of an unsuitable (too fast) reducer. 3. Intermediate flash-off times too short. 4. Panel temperature too high (to accelerate drying process). 5. Flash-off too long for two-pack paints to be dried in higher temperatures. 6. When IR lamps are used, the panel temperature becomes too high when the distance between

lamps and painted object is too small. Minimum distance: 60 cm. How to avoid: To avoid pinholes, you should select the reducer (fast, normal, slow) in accordance with the spraying temperature and keep to the recommended film thicknesses. Furthermore, the specified flash-off times, drying temperatures and the distances between curing panels and painted objects should be observed. Repair: When there are only minor surface defects, you can scuff sand the topcoat with P1200 paper and polish the sanded areas with fine polishing paste and an additional polishing product. When there are more severe surface defects, the pinholes must be sanded out and a new finish must be applied to the affected areas.


Matrices Industry




Cratering Definition: Craters are small circular hollows or dents with protruding edges found in the topcoat or in intermediate coats. Causes:

1. Oil, grease, wax or silicone polish residues were not completely removed from the surface to be painted.

2. Contaminants transferred by the air, e.g., overspray of a different type of paint. 3. Oils or water from the compressed air used. 4. Silicones from aerosols (cockpit spray). 5. Foreign substances from industrial plants in the neighbourhood. 6. Silicones from sealing compounds or glue. 7. Residues from mould release agents (on plastic parts), slip additives and/or solder pastes,

bitumen and oil from insulation material. How to avoid: Cratering can only be avoided by thoroughly cleaning the surfaces to be painted with Salcomix SV20-0505 Silicone Remover, for example. When jobs with products containing silicone (polish, sealing compounds) are to be carried out at the same time, this should be done in a separate room. Repair: Craters can only be removed by sanding off the affected coats. The sanded areas must then be refinished after repeated thorough cleaning.


Matrices Industry




Wrinkling/Lifting: Definition: Wrinkling/lifting means that an uneven furrow-like pattern appears on the surface of the paint film when it is curing. This indicates that the upper coat dries faster than the coat under it. This happens only with synthetic paints. The term 'wrinkling' is used when the pattern appears in the synthetic paint film. The term 'lifting' is used when the furrow-like pattern is caused by the overcoated synthetic paint coat. Causes:

1. Synthetic paint applied too thick. 2. The synthetic paint was mixed with too much accelerator. 3. Unfavourable drying conditions (e.g., very high ambient temperature). 4. The synthetic paint coat had not hardened through when it was overcoated. How to avoid: Observe the prescribed film thickness, add no more than the recommended quantity of accelerator and create favourable drying conditions with proper fresh air supply at the right temperature. When the original finish causes lifting, it should be sealed before being overcoated. Repair: Minor wrinkling: allow the affected surface to dry completely, then sand it off to a well-cured coat and apply a new finish. More severe wrinkling: remove the whole paint coat and apply a new finish.


Matrices Industry




Stone-chipping Definition: Stone-chipping is the term used for irregular sharp-edged damage resulting from the impact of small stones, chippings or similar materials on the finish. Causes: Chippings are flung on the vehicle with varying energy. Depending on the force of the impact, the chippings will damage the topcoat or even the whole paint system. At the points of damage, humidity will creep under the finish and lead to corrosion creepback and flaking. How to avoid: Stone-chipping is a paintwork defect that cannot be avoided. However, the use of stonechip or underbody protection products in repair jobs will reduce the depth of the damage and prevent damage down to the substrate. Repair: Isolated small points of damage in the topcoat can be repaired with a touch-up stick. In the case of larger or more severe damage, the affected areas must be sanded down to the substrate and refinished. Stone-chipping combined with corrosion will also require complete refinishing.


Matrices Industry




Under-film corrosion Under-film corrosion is a paintwork defect that produces irregular swelling (pointed blisters) in the finish. When such swellings are opened or burst, rust becomes visible that is brownish on steel and white on aluminium and galvanised steel substrates. Causes:

1. Humidity penetrated down to the metal through cracks or at mechanically damaged points (e.g., stone-chipping) in the finish.

2. Rust was not completely removed before refinishing. Penetrating humidity caused new corrosion in the refinished area.

3. The metal surface was contaminated, for example with hygroscopic salts contained in hand sweat.

Such salts can cause corrosion and water blisters when they get in contact with air humidity that penetrated the finish. How to avoid:

- Thoroughly clean old paintwork. - Be sure to remove all corrosion completely. - Repair stone-chipping and other mechanical damage to the finish immediately. Repair: Remove the damaged finish down to the substrate by sanding or shot-blasting. Be sure to reach bare metal before you start refinishing.

Note On anodised aluminium surfaces, it is in most cases impossible to achieve permanent adhesion.

Note

Painting of aluminium and temperature changes Condensation forms when the temperature of the ambient air differs from the temperature of the vehicle or panel to be painted (dew point). In practice, this means that the temperature of vehicles left in cold air overnight and brought into the heated spraybooth for painting will be below this dew point. As a result, a film of condensation that is invisible to the naked eye will form on the aluminium. This film will later result in loss of adhesion. The only way to avoid this condensation is to condition the vehicles for about 16 h at ambient temperature and no more than 75% relative humidity; the same result can be achieved by 2 hours force-drying at 50°C.

Drying up to 24 h (curing)

The drying and curing process of the topcoat can be accelerated by adding 10% of isocyanate.

Significantly faster drying thanks to: different hardeners different reducers different additives

Proved to be the most flexible system with regard to drying at different temperatures.

Rather slow drying. The use of faster hardeners accelerated drying to a limited degree only. Crosslinking or hardening does not take place at temperatures below 10°C.

Forced drying is possible at temperatures of up to 100°C.

Overcoating

(with the same product)

Can be overcoated only after full curing (5 - 7 days) and scuff-sanding.

In most cases, overcoating is possible within 24 hours without prior scuff-sanding (cf. Technical data sheet).

Prior scuff-sanding operations required. Can be overcoated after full curing only (36 h at 20°C, 50 µm).

How to paint aluminium surfaces (Description of the pre-treatment procedure and of suitable painting processes.)



Mechanical Cleaning: Degrease with Salcomix Metal Cleaner SV22-0500

Sanding: Scuff sand joints, beads and rivets using a rotating brush made of stainless steel or brass.

Aluminium profiles:

Blow sanding dust off the surface to be painted. Separately blow out joints and beads, and clean again using a Korflex brush.

Cleaning: Wipe down intensively with Salcomix Metal Cleaner SV22-0500. A light rag must not turn dark with sanding dust.

Chemical Product: For example, Primalu 410, Eskaphor AB 820 or other suitable materials, follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Important: Do not allow to surface-dry, and wash down with steam-jet equipment without additives.

Note On anodised aluminium surfaces, it is in most cases impossible to achieve permanent adhesion.

Note Painting of aluminium and temperature changes Condensation forms when the temperature of the ambient air differs from the temperature of the vehicle or panel to be painted (dew point).

In practice, this means that the temperature of vehicles left in cold air overnight and brought into the heated spraybooth for painting will be below this dew point. As a result, a film of condensation that is invisible to the naked eye will form on the aluminium. This film will later result in loss of adhesion.

The only way to avoid this condensation is to condition the vehicles for about 16 h at ambient temperature and no more than 75% relative humidity; the same result can be achieved by 2 hours force-drying at 50°C.






Stainless-steel brush Important for handling: diameter and length of the stainless-steel wire

max. dia.:

approx. 80 mm length of wires:

23 - 30 mm wire dia.: 0.2 mm

width: 18 - 20 mm

Korflex brush

Bristles made of a plastic blend that, up to a speed of 3000 revs per minute, is neither softened nor dissolved by the resulting heat.
