NOVOL NOVAKRYL 560 AIR DRY CLEARCOAT & H5160 HARDENER KIT 1.5LT

The NOVOL Novakryl 560 Air Dry Clearcoat Kit (1.5L) is a high-quality clearcoat commonly used in automotive refinishing for protecting and enhancing the appearance of painted surfaces. Here's how it is typically used:

Application:

1. Surface Preparation:

   • Ensure the basecoat is properly cured and clean, free of dust, grease, and other contaminants.
   • Lightly tack the surface to remove any dust particles.

2. Mixing Ratio:

   • The kit includes the clearcoat and hardener, typically mixed in a 2:1 ratio (2 parts clearcoat to 1 part hardener by volume).
   • Stir thoroughly to ensure an even consistency.
   • Add a small amount of thinner if necessary (usually about 5-10%, depending on application conditions).

3. Spray Application:

   • Use a spray gun with a nozzle size of around 1.3 to 1.4 mm.
   • Apply 2 to 3 coats, allowing each coat to flash off (become tack-free) for about 5 to 10 minutes between coats.

4. Drying:

   • This clearcoat is air-drying, which means it doesn't require a baking process.
   • At room temperature (around 20-25°C), it will typically be dust-free in about 15-20 minutes.
   • It should be ready for handling in approximately 2-3 hours, though full curing may take up to 24 hours.

5. Polishing:

   • If polishing is required, it can typically be done after the clearcoat has fully cured (around 24 hours).

Recommended Usage:

• Ideal for spot repairs or full resprays on cars.
• Suitable for high-gloss finishes with excellent resistance to environmental factors like UV light and weather conditions.
