What automotive varnish should I use?
There are different types of clearcoats on the market, including medium and high solids. In short, they vary based on the amount of solids and drying speed.
Generally, high-solids automotive clearcoats offer the best value on the market, even though they initially appear more expensive. Medium solids clearcoats also offer a quality commensurate with the application. Ideally, you should choose the clearcoat that best suits your desired results, taking into account your needs for gloss quality and drying speed.
How to apply automotive varnish?
To ensure a good result, it is essential to prepare the vehicle using the correct procedures, thus avoiding some problems that can occur when the surface or the product is not prepared correctly.
To do this, after applying the polyester-based paint, use TH710 Degreasing Solution to clean the part that will receive the clearcoat.
Prepare the clearcoat strictly following the manufacturer's instructions and apply it, also following the product's technical data sheet.
If you are going to polish the part, wait for the product to dry completely.
How to dilute automotive varnish?
The dilution of the clear coat depends on the manufacturer. Therefore, you should check the instructions for the product you purchased.
