The Problem
Larger scratches, parking damage, or small dents with paint damage require more than just a touch-up pen. The damaged area must be prepared and repaired with spray paint.
With Spot Repair, only the damaged area is painted – not the entire part. This saves time and money!
Here’s How:
Preparation
Thoroughly clean the damaged area with silicone remover. Remove loose paint and sand the edges with 800 grit sandpaper.
Priming
For areas down to bare metal: First apply rust protection primer, then filler. Let it dry well and sand.
Masking
Generously mask off the surrounding area. Use masking film and painter’s tape. The transitions should be able to blend softly.
Spraying Base Coat
Apply the base coat in 2-3 thin layers. Let it flash off for 5-10 minutes between coats. Spray distance approx. 20-25 cm.
⚠️ Warning
Don’t apply too thick! Better multiple thin coats than risking runs. With metallic paints, pay attention to consistent spray distance!
💡 Pro Tip
Work in a dust-free environment at 15-25°C temperature. Avoid direct sunlight! Best to work in the garage with the door open.
Applying Clear Coat
After 20-30 minutes of flash-off time, apply 2K clear coat in 2-3 layers. The clear coat provides gloss and protection.
Finishing
After 24h drying time, you can polish out any dust inclusions with 2000 grit sandpaper (wet) and polishing compound.
