Product Description

The Aqua premium system is an innovative water-soluble basepaint system. The mixing system contains all solid and effect color shades for vehicle repair paintwork.

Properties:

Easy and to quick process

Even impact alignment ensures high certainty of outcome

Short process times

Easy and safe painting

Various application possibilities (interior, multiple-coat and multi-color coats)

Application Instructions

Base Surface

Suitable base surfaces:

Primed and filled surfaces (two-part HS filler)

Intact old paint

For plastic surfaces, Glazing Adhesion Promoter -ALO 822 000 10- + two-part HS filler (elasticized)

with Two-Part Plastic Adhesive Filler -LKF 696 009 A2-/-LKF 696 040 A2- insulated base surfaces on plastic surfaces

See special instructions → Anchor.

Pre-treatment of base surfaces:

Clean the factory or old paint or two-part HS filler thoroughly with Silicone Remover -LVM 020 000 A5- or Silicone Remover, Long -LVM 020 100 A5-.

Dry-sand with rotary sander and dust extraction, P500-600 grit.

Or "wet"-sand with P800-1000 sandpaper.

Use a suitable cleaning agent before reworking to ensure a clean and residue-free surface.

Wipe off any residual silicone remover with a lint-free cloth, leaving no streaks.

Special Instructions

Sanded-through areas must be insulated with One-Part Wash Primer -LVM 044 007 A2-/-LVM 044 171 A2-. The sanded-through areas should not be larger than 5.0 cm in diameter.

When using the two-part HS filler, any bare areas must be insulated with Two-Part Wash Primer -LHV 043 000 A2- or One-Part Wash Primer -LVM 044 007 A2-/-LVM 044 171 A2-.

Standard Application Processing

Mixing vessels:

l	Plastic containers or tin-coated cans painted on the inside

Strainers:

l	Filter watery base paint through water-tight, 125 mm strainers before working with cup systems.

Additives:

(at a normal/high temperature and low humidity depending on the respective object size)

l	Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 200 A3-

l	Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 301 A3-

l	Use Aqua premium standard measuring stick.

Note

After adding additive, use the material within 24 hours.

Application type "coat"

Processing viscosity at +20 C (68 F) material temperature is the mixing viscosity for "Compliant" and "HVLP".

For solid colors, add 10 % Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 200 A3/LVM 035 301 A3- at +20 C (68 F) material temperature.

For metallic/pearl effect colors, add 20 % Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 200 A3/LVM 035 301 A3- at +20 C (68 F) material temperature.

Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): "Compliant" 1.2 to 1.3 mm.

Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): "HVLP" WSB/1.3 mm.

Set spray pressure (see manufacturer's information): "Compliant" to 2.0 bar.

Set atomizing pressure (see manufacturer's information): "HVLP" 0.7 bar.

One application consists of 1.5 spray applications. Apply a normal spray application, then apply a "finish spray application"/effect spray application.

Note

For colors with poor covering properties, after allowing for ventilation it may be necessary to apply another spray application ("wet" in "wet").

Drying

The ventilation time for a clear coat application should be long enough for the surface to become completely matted.

Recommended layer thicknesses:

12-25 mm for solid colors

10-15 mm for metallic colors

15-20 mm for pearl effect colors

For smaller surfaces, the following make it possible to reduce the ventilation time:

The painted surfaces can be applied more quickly by blowing them with blower nozzles (hand blowers or with stationary devices).

Blowing with a spray gun is also possible after waiting at least five minutes.

For larger surfaces, the following make it possible to reduce the ventilation time:

The painted surfaces can be applied more quickly by using stationary blowing devices (such as ceiling systems), infrared radiators or oven drying.

Three Layer Color Processing and Multi-Color Paintwork

Hardener:

l	Aqua Premium Hardener -LVM 045 000 A1-

Additives:

(at high temperature and low humidity)

l	Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 301 A3-

l	Use Aqua premium measuring stick for 3 coat colors.

Note

After adding additive, use the material within 24 hours.

Curing Time:

l	Solids colors at +20 C (68 F) room temperature for 90 to 120 minutes.

l	Effect colors at +20 C (68 F) room temperature for 45 to 60 minutes.

Application type "coat"

Processing viscosity at +20 C (68 F) material temperature is the mixing viscosity for "Compliant" and "HVLP".

For three layer colors in primary shade only, add 5 % Aqua Premium Hardener -LVM 045 000 A1-.

For solid colors, add 10 % Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 301 A3- at +20 C (68 F) material temperature.

For metallic/pearl effect colors, add 20 % Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 301 A3- at +20 C (68 F) material temperature.

Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): "Compliant" 1.2 to 1.3 mm.

Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): "HVLP" WSB/1.3 mm.

Set spray pressure (see manufacturer's information): "Compliant" to 2.0 bar.

Set atomizing pressure (see manufacturer's information): "HVLP" 0.7 bar.

One application consists of 1.5 spray applications. Apply a normal spray application, then apply a "finish spray application"/effect spray application.

Note

For colors with poor covering properties, after allowing for ventilation it may be necessary to apply another spray application ("wet" in "wet").

Drying

The ventilation time for a clear coat application should be long enough for the surface to become completely matted (without blowing).

The ventilation time should take place assisted with blowing devices at 20-40 C (68 - 104 F ) for 5 to 10 minutes until the surface becomes completely matted.

The final ventilation time is at 60-65 C (140149 F) for 10 to 15 minutes. Let the foundation cool off before applying the effect.

Note

For multi-color paintwork, the recommended tape is the "blue conture tape".

Reworking

Can be painted over with:

Effect color

Two-part HS clear coat up to maximum of 72 hours after applying the base paint

Processing interior paintwork without applying clear coat

Application:

Application areas are the vehicle interior, e.g. engine compartment and luggage compartment inner sides, where satin-finish and resistant surface without additional clear coating is desired.
