DESCRIPTION A special transparent nano ceramic protective coating that protects exterior plastic and trim parts. Offers excellent resistance against water, weather and temperature. Helps to eliminate the risk of scratches. Leaves a natural and even finish which will not crack,bubble, flakes, peel, detach or discolor over the years. PROPERTIES - Super hydrophobic effects - High gloss finish - 7H pencil hardness- Easy-to-Clean- UV and chemical resistance - Easy to apply- Cures at room temperature - Advanced Polysiloxane formulation APPLICATION Plastic Coating is particularly suitable for exterior plastic & trim parts, headlight, plexiglass. TOOLS Depending on the substrate Plastic Coating can be applied with microfiber applicators. The product is also suitable for spray application. Spray application: Process: HVLP-compressed air Spray gun: e.g. SATA minijet HVLP Working pressure: ca. 2 – 3 bar Nozzles: 0.8 – 1.3 mm The spray gun can be cleaned with n-butyl acetate, for example. TECHNICAL DATA (V1B/V1T) Appearance: Density: Binder Base: Curing: Shelf Life: Container Size: Colourless ca. 0,86 g/cm3 Organic Polysilazane Normal ambient temperature/ 80° celcius 12 months 50ml INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The product is for professional use and should be applied by approved applicators only. Test on a small area or apply a test coat before application. APPLICATION OF V3 PLASTIC COATING Clean the surface thoroughly to be free of waxes, sealants, tar, oils, grease, or any other contaminants on surface. Wrap the applicator sponge with the white microfiber suede cloth that comes with the box or use applicator of your preference. Foam applicators can also be used as a substitute. Apply V3 Plastic Coating using normal pressure on applicator. Gently wipe off residue with clean, lint-free microfiber towel Wait 60 minutes before adding an additional layer for maximum protection. Allow curing of coating to begin. Curing can be accelerated using IR Lamps. Follow lamp manufacturer's recommended settings. Keep coating away from all polish and compound dust during curing process. APPLICATION ON HEADLIGHTS After headlights or headlamps are sanded with P3000 grit sand papers, apply V3 Plastic Coating using normal pressure on applicator. Make sure the area is well covered. Always start from an edge to avoid excess on other panels. Work in horizontal or vertical movements to ensure that product is carried through consistently. Leaves the residue without wiping. Wait for 30-60 mins. Apply second layer with previous step. Observe the sanding marks, if the headlights or headlamps are crystal clear. Restoration is done. INFRA-RED CURING Curing can be accelerated by using IR Lamps. Recommended settings for IR lamps are as following:i. Minimum 80cm of distance above the surface.ii. Maximum 70⁰C of surface temperature.iii. Maximum 30 minutes on each panel. INSTRUCTIONS VIDEO PROCESSING & CURING Product must be applied at an ambient temperature of at least + 5°C and a relative humidity of 30 % - 80 %. Avoid direct sunlight! Apply the coating in dry conditions. Any mistakes can be rectified within approx. 10 min of application. Traces of water in the applicator should also be avoided. Applicators dampened with water should not be used. The applicators cannot be reused once the coating has been applied. Plastic Coating is dry-to-touch after about one hour. The recommended curing conditions (until water resistant) are: - Room temperature: 8 – 12 hours - 80 °C (Infra-red curing): 2 hours Curing can be accelerated by using IR Lamps. Heating Polysilazanes results in crosslinking to form higher molecular weight polymers. Recommended settings for IR lamps are as following: i. Minimum 80cm of distance above the surface. ii. Maximum 80⁰C of surface temperature. iii. Maximum 30 minutes on each panel. The Plastic coating is fully effective after 5 – 7 days’ curing at room temperature. During this time, the vehicles should not be driven into a vehicle wash. EFFECTS & PERFORMANCE
