Basecaot BC001
Aplication: Metallic and solid-colour basecoat/clearcoat finishing.Wet-on-wet process with CC006 Clear.
Properties: Very good hiding power, high efficiency.
Remarks: • Mixing formulas with TP005 and mixing bases are available to cover the whole range of colours
needed in automotive refinishing.
• At rather high temperatures or when refinishing large surfaces, it is possible to replaceTH04 byTH03
slow,while replacing TH03 Adjusting base by TH03 slow at the same time.
• Mixtures will keep for up to 6 months when stored in containers or cans coated inside.
• Flash-off times can be reduced significantly by using appropriate air blow equipment.
• When using white colors with high spray viscosity the mixing ratio can be changed to 100 : 80.
