Application Instructions

Base Surface

Suitable base surfaces:

sheet steel that has been cleaned, sanded and primed with Two-Part Wash Primer -LHV 043 000 A2- or One-Part Wash Primer -LVM 044 007/171 A2-, galvanized/electrolytically zinced sheet steel or soft aluminum

Fine or non-sanded, thoroughly cleaned, original factory primer.

Sanded factory paint or old paint (including thermoplastic coatings)

Surfaces prepared with two-part polyester products and then sanded very fine.

Cleaned and sanded UP-GF surfaces, free of separating agents

Pre-treatment of base surfaces:

  • Carefully clean using Silicone Remover -LVM 020 000 A5- or Silicone Remover, Long -LVM 020 100 A5-.

Adding 10 % VHS hardener at +20 °C material temperature

Adding HS hardener is not required, but up to 10 % is possible.

  • Use a measuring stick to mix when pouring in the hardener.

  • Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): “Compliant” 1.6 to 1.8 mm.
  • Set spray nozzle (see manufacturer's information): “HVLP” 1.5 to 1.9 mm.
  • Set spray pressure (see manufacturer's information): “Compliant” to 1.5 to 3.0 bar.
  • Set atomizing pressure (see manufacturer's information): “HVLP” 0.7 bar.

  • Three spray applications are required to get a dry layer thickness of between 80 and 300 µm.

When air drying, the maximum dry layer thickness is 300 µm.

When forced drying, the maximum dry layer thickness is 250 µm.

When IR drying (white and light gray), the maximum dry layer thickness is 200 µm.

When IR drying (black), the maximum dry layer thickness is 180 µm.

The recommended dry layer thickness is between 80 and 200 µm.
Two-Part HS Premium Filler

Drying

The material can be sanded after 3 to 4 hours (layer thickness of 80 to 150 µm after air drying at +20 °C room temperature). If the applied layer thickness is between 150 and 300 µm, the material should be allowed to dry over night and then sanded.
Two-Part HS Premium Filler

Final drying time with forced drying is a minimum of 5 to 15 minutes.
Two-Part HS Premium Filler
Forced drying at +60 °C object temperature for 25 to 30 minutes for a layer thickness of between 80 and 150 µm; 35 to 45 minutes for a layer thickness of between 150 and 250 µm
Two-Part HS Premium Filler

Final drying time for IR drying is a minimum of 5 to 15 minutes.

Special Instructions

Elastification for rigid and semi-rigid plastics:

The base material must first be mixed with 15 % Elastic Additive -ALZ 011 001-. 3:1 mixing ratio for HS hardener without thinner, 4:1 mixing ratio for VHS hardener with 5 % thinner. Any faults in the base surface can be filled with two-part polyester filling paste. After drying and intermediate sanding, insulate the filler patches with two-part HS premium filler. The best insulating effect, even with critical surfaces, is achieved with a medium layer of 80 to 120 µm in 2 spray passes, with air-drying overnight, or oven or IR drying. With critical surfaces, fine preparation is required and the parts must be evenly filled. The Two-Part HS Vario Filler -LGF 786 004 A4- (gray) is recommended for insulating thermoplastic coatings.
