Paintwork

Straightening and varnishing work on the car body assume knowledge of the material and its processing. This knowledge acquired over the years of practice. So here is intended to address only a small fault of the body and varnish.

To re-varnishing it is imperative same Lakokraska, t. To. The slightest color differences after work immediately apparent. The corresponding tone paint specified by the manufacturer on the type plate as the number of varnish. Nameplate is located in the engine compartment on the front wall.

If, however, a difference occurs between the original and repair lacquer varnish, this was due to a change in the color of nail during the operation of a vehicle as a result of aging, solar ultraviolet radiation, extreme temperature fluctuations, weather and chemical influences, such as industrial emissions. In addition, damage to the surface of varnish, changing its color and fading occur if care for lacquered and made unsuitable cleaning agents.

Metallized lacquer consists of two layers, the main lacquer - metallic and colorless coating lacquer. In the process of coating is applied on top clearcoat wet basic varnish. Risk differences of color when re-applying a metallized varnish is particularly great, t. To. Here the distinction of colors leads have different viscosities repair varnish compared with a proprietary lacquer.

Repair damage caused by stone impact

To avoid big repair caused by rust, you should regularly remove minor damage to varnish.

To eliminate small scratches and stone impacts that violate only topcoat and do not penetrate to the steel sheet, in general, sufficient treatment varnish pencil. Along with it also helps in tubes with varnish brush, as well as commercially available self-adhesive lacquer film, in the case if the damage is very low or only affects primer.

Deeper damage from being hit by stones, which are already formed rust, rust remover to clean a knife or a small screwdriver until it appears clean sheet. It is important that no remains even small rust spots. Under the rust removers are meant little plastic sleeve, fitted for short vytsarapyvaniya rust with a wire brush.

Treated areas should be thoroughly dried and degreased. To do this, place the repair and clean the surrounding nail polish remover silicone.

Apply on clean metal surface with a fine brush a little lacquer primer ("Primer"). Since the primer is generally commercially available in aerosol, you should apply a little primer on the cover packaging and dipping the brush into it.

After the primer has dried, cover the spot repair of paint cans of paint for plugging. In such packages brush built into the cap. If there is only one disposal of aerosol with an appropriate paint, then vyprysnut a little paint on the lid, and finally apply a thin layer of nail polish brush. Always apply a thin layer of varnish only that it did not spread. In conclusion, let the paint dry thoroughly. Process to carry out coating until the recess will not be filled with varnish and will not be noticeable at ambient varnished surface.

Eliminating crumple / Remove shells from corrosion

Small holes can be eliminated using suitable straightening hammer and anvil manual. When the recesses in the body from rust is recommended to replace the damaged part in the complex, depending on the amount of damage or welded steel sheets.

Eliminating body deformations

Small cavities straighten straightening hammer. At the same time on the other hand keep deepening manual anvil. Not too much or hit with a hammer on the anvil, or sheet will sag and will not be smooth. Work from the edge to the middle.

Leveling surface periodically monitor hand until it acquires the desired shape. Small surface zashpaklyuyte later.

With the repair after leveling carefully remove the remnants of rust and old paint using coarse sandpaper (120) stretched over the wheel head, or polish the fabric circle. Obkleyte nearby decorative films or plastic parts with adhesive tape so that they do not accidentally been scratched during polishing.

Preparation for varnishing

Before varnishing the car wash.

Lacquering is carried out only at temperatures above + 12 ?� C, without direct solar radiation and wind.

Removing rust

Place obkleyte repair tape that you do not accidentally damage the adjacent varnish.

Three-sided file or screwdriver, and sandpaper number 120, remove rust and rust visible, hidden bubbles.

Sand paper number 320 pre-grind the area around the damage to the width of about 1-2 cm to healthy lacquer.

Galvanized body surface grind, if possible, only to the primer, and not to the galvanized surface.

The application of corrosion protective primer (Primer)

Universal Nitro Thinner Clean repair area with a clean cloth and remove grease and dust and let dry.

In order to avoid further problems, Primer and caused him topcoat must be of the same production. Otherwise paint can later blister or shrink.

"Primer" is sprayed onto the sheet, cleaned of rust, from a distance of 25 cm. To the smallest aerosol spray did not fall to the adjacent parts obkleyte area around the repair paper and masking tape.

After 10-15 minutes, you can repeat the spraying. If you need a coat after spraying, the Primer should be allowed to dry.

Caulking

There are 2 kinds of fillers: Two plaster and thin plaster. Two-component filler is mixed shortly before processing with hardener. It causes a rapid hardening of filler, which can be processed shortly thereafter. This filler is used for leveling of larger uneven body. A thin coat is decorative, smoothing minor irregularities. It can be applied in several layers. Both types of fillers are available in tubes and jars, filling fillers are also available in aerosol.

Although the bank indicated that the application of fillers can be made directly on clean plate, just in case, we recommend pre-treated sheet "Primer" (corrosion protection).

Once dry, sand the bumps manually or superfinishing head. This should be used sanding paper ?�� 180. You can use the paper for wet grinding. In this case wet the repair area with a wet sponge and the abrasive paper from time to time in the grinding process spray the sufficient amount of water.

Finally, thoroughly clean the repair area and let it dry.

Cover a thin putty repair space with a wide, flexible plastic spatula and let it dry for at least two hours. The repair areas at the rounded contours and fine putty is recommended to use aerosol.

Depending on the thickness of the thin coat must dry for 2-3 hours.

Grinding

For sale is a different grit sanding paper. The lower its number, the coarser grinding. For a two-component putty grinding grain recommended number of 180 to 240; filling plaster and old paint polished with sandpaper number 360 with humidification. For the final wet sanding before varnishing it is recommended sanding paper number 600.

Prepared otshpaklevannoe place grind wet paper number 360, while constantly wring the wet sponge over the recommended places. Sponge from time to time immersed in pure water and let it soak up completely with water.

For the subsequent final wet grinding works best special paper for wet sanding number 600, it can be sanded and border lacquer and spray varnish. Remaining after this microscopic scratches on the cover lacquer is hardly noticeable.

Cleaning

Before applying the varnish should be cleaned of grease and silicone residue from the ground surface and the adjacent surface of the lacquer width of about two palms. It is best suited for this silicone remover.

After sanding, thoroughly clean the repair area and obkleyte all adjacent surfaces with newspaper and masking tape. When varnishing wings carefully obkleyte tire and shock absorber.

Place repair whenever possible paste so that the sprayed surface reaches the nearest trim strip, or to the edge of the body, that is. To. On the edge of the painting has always formed the paint sags. If a relatively smooth transition to corporate varnish is not possible, then pasting make approximately the width of two hands on the repair.

To prevent sedimentation of dust sprinkle floor with water.

The process of coating

In order to avoid problems in the coating previously applied Primer to be manufactured by the same company as the aerosol lacquer. The varnish in this case will not form bubbles and shrinkability.

Recommended pre-trained in applying a varnish, for example, in the old wing.

Moisten the floor with water, so that no dust.

Clean the repair area and the adjacent area of silicone remover. Even more optimum basis for the coating of varnish will rub polishing paste, removing the silicone.

The aerosol container was shaken vigorously before use for at least 3-5 minutes, or on any surface varnish drips.

When varnished "Metallic" apply a small amount of paint from an aerosol can on a board to remove deposited on the lifting tube metal particles.

Extensive vertical and horizontal surfaces are sprayed with lacquer "crosswise": start spraying out of the surface and continue to move the jet in the other direction, also starting from the outside.

Small surface spirally sprayed from outside to inside, to avoid excessive dusting.

To conduct an aerosol container with a uniform speed and at the same distance (about 25 cm) from the surface.

To enable a seamless transition to a healthy varnish, it is necessary to apply it at least four overlapping strokes spraying. Each individual application should increase the surface of the previous applied layer of 2-3 centimeters.

If spraying is performed at too close a distance, the motion is too slow or spray occurs at a variable rate, then there are the so-called nodules varnish. This means that in some places the varnish flows down, ie. K. Too much jetted at the same place. The same happens if the change of direction in the process of spraying the sprayer does not pass through the closed surface.

For lacquer "Metallic" is very difficult to achieve color matching with a proprietary lacquer. Pigmentation (distribution of aluminum particles) will be more uniform if the last process of spraying going from a distance of 25 cm and 30 cm. The slow movement of the sprayer gives a rich color and fast spraying - a lighter tone.

Empty aerosol containers. To do this, an aerosol container in the head and jetted paint as long as it will not be.

After finishing lacquer work immediately remove any protective coating.

Allow to dry lacquered surface. Drying can be accelerated by a strong reflex camera or lights.

Do not use the fan, t. To. The result is a fresh twist varnish may be deposited dust.
