2. Skuur die oppervlak: Lightly sand the existing finish or primer with appropriate grit sandpaper (e.g., 400-600 grit wet sanding) to create a uniform profile for adhesion. Feather-edge any existing paint chips or scratches.
3. Re-clean and Tack: After sanding, re-clean the surface to remove all sanding dust. Use a tack cloth to pick up any remaining particles just before painting.
4. Maskering: Carefully mask off all areas not intended for painting, including trim, windows, and adjacent panels, using high-quality masking tape and paper.

4.3 Mixing Instructions:

Consult the product label for specific mixing ratios. Typically, single-stage urethane paints require mixing with a hardener/activator and sometimes a reducer/thinner. Mix thoroughly according to manufacturer specifications, ensuring a consistent, lump-free mixture. Allow an induction time if specified.

5. Gebruiksaanwysings (Toepassing)

Apply paint in a well-ventilated, dust-free environment with consistent temperature and humidity.

5.1 Spray Gun Setup:

• Adjust air pressure and fluid delivery settings on your spray gun according to the paint manufacturer's recommendations and your equipment.
• Perform a test spray on a scrap piece of material to verify spray pattern and atomization.

5.2 Application Steps:

1. Eerste laag (Kleeflaag): Apply a light, even tack coat. This coat should be thin and slightly translucent, allowing it to flash off (become dull) within 5-10 minutes.
2. Daaropvolgende lae: Apply 2-3 medium wet coats, allowing appropriate flash time between each coat (typically 10-15 minutes, or until the previous coat is no longer tacky). Overlap each pass by 50% to ensure even coverage.
3. Final Coat: The final coat should be applied evenly to achieve a smooth, high-gloss finish. Avoid applying too heavily to prevent runs or sags.
4. Droog: Allow the paint to dry in a dust-free environment. Refer to the product label for specific dry-to-touch, dry-to-handle, and full cure times. Drying times can vary significantly based on temperature, humidity, and film thickness.

6. Onderhoud en versorging

Once fully cured, the painted surface requires proper care to maintain its appearance and durability.

• Was: Wash the painted surface regularly with a mild automotive soap and soft sponge or microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes.
• Waxing/Sealing: After the paint has fully cured (typically 30-90 days), you may apply a high-quality automotive wax or sealant to provide additional protection and enhance gloss.
• Vermy harde chemikalieë: Do not use strong solvents, degreasers, or harsh chemicals on the painted surface, as these can damage the finish.
