Candy & Chrome topcoats

Know-how an advantage - bake powder coatings

Our brilliant candy color topcoats can after pre-treatment be used directly on chrome or polished surfaces. Otherwise these special effects are to be used in the two-layer process as follows:

After the component has been stripped or degreased, e.g. by glass bead or sand blasting, the first layer of paint (chrome silver/silver) is applied and baked in a preheated oven according to the recommended curing conditions. Remember that the baking time will vary depending on the thickness of your substrate.
After the curing time, allow the component to cool down briefly. When the object has a residual temperature of approx. 70°/80° C, the second layer (Candy topcoat) is applied and baked again with the recommended curing conditions. Please pay attention to the correct object temperature with the corresponding holding time during the burn-in (ideally using a laser temperature measuring device).

The individual steps must be carried out in one operation, in order to ensure cross-linking of the respective layers.
