Application
Here are the main steps to follow when applying Standox Standohyd basecoats:
- Thoroughly prepare the surface to be treated. To do this, you need to sand the old or original paintwork properly and remove all impurities.
- Degrease the surface with Standox precleaner TB50.
- Use an orbital sander to sand the primer-surfacer.
- Filter the white mother-of-pearl base through a 125µ cone filter.
- Apply the paint using a basecoat spraygun (with an HVLP cap and a 1.3 or 1.4 nozzle, depending on the technical characteristics of the spraygun).
- Apply two wet coats and a placement veil for metallic and pearlescent shades. To this end, a solid first coat should be applied to ensure better adhesion. After the recommended drying time, apply a second, thinner coat, keeping a greater distance between the spray gun and the treated surface.
- Leave to dry until the desired matt finish is achieved.
- Complete the final finish by sanding with P800, using a pneumatic sander, to remove any dirt.
