PPG Pointers: Waterborne Best Practices

Waterborne Best Practices

Paint Pointers - Technical Tips from PPG
Fall has brought a change in weather, and this can often affect how your shop and paint behaves. So let’s review some waterborne best practices to keep your shop at its most productive.
  • Confirm that you have clean, dry air being delivered to your spray gun. Less than 10% humidity is ideal.
  • Inspect booth filters, eliminate any dead zones or poor airflow by changing filters. A good target is 70-75 CFM. Sufficient airflow is key to proper performance of waterborne basecoat.
  • Use Adjuster and Modifier in every mix. This new technology has several benefits including the most robust film properties, a wider application window in humid conditions, and even improved metallic control.
  • Temperature affects viscosity. With the change in season, validate your standard reductions are giving you a spray viscosity of 23-28 seconds in DIN #4 viscosity cup.
  • Use vented spray cups to reduce pressure on the filter screen, which allows for a smooth constant flow of product (no spitting).
  • Fully dehydrate each basecoat layer with airflow over the repair. Airflow ensures evaporation pulls water from the substrate out. Avoid trapping water with heat, which dries from the surface inward.
These Waterborne best practices will help you work smarter not harder!

A Game-Changing Solution: SEM ORBiT Tip Promo Kit

11/14/2018

0 Comments

 
SEM
New ORBiT Tip Promo Kit, along with 2 New Heavy Bodied Seam Sealers that we just released.

The beads that the ORBiT Tip so easily produces on its own, are one of the most difficult and quite honestly the biggest pain in the butt Seams that a Shop Technician has to try and replicate. 

Initially, the ORBiT Tip will only be available through the purchase of the Part #40000 ORBiT Kit. Details of the kit are outlined in the attached “ORBiT Promotion Warehouse pdf.

After the kit promotion, an ORBiT Tip will come with each one of our Heavy Bodied Seam Sealers, 40177, 40277, 40377 and 40477, but that won’t be until later this year.

The video and pdf will give you a visual of what the ORBiT Tip can do and where on a vehicle this type of OE Seam is used.

We produced 5,200 kits and are starting to get low. Please contact your Tasco Salesman now to get more information.
