Gloss Level Adjustment/Matting and Application Instructions

Note

Refer to "Gloss Level Adjustment" (5.75) and "Repair Paint Systems For Matte Painted Vehicles" (5.76).

Application Instructions

Note

The addition of Elastic Additive -ALZ 011 001- is omitted.

Stir or shake the Matting Component -LVM 769 810 A2- in the can well.

With the two-part HS clear coat and two-part HS top coat, mix the Matting Component -LVM 769 810 A2- according to specification and infuse with hardener and thinner just before processing. The processing of the ready-to spray mixture should immediately follow. If the mixture remains in the mixing- or spray gun receptacle for a longer period of time (15 minutes), it should be stirred again before continuing to use (separation).

Adding the matting compound can influence the covering capacity.

It is absolutely necessary to test the respective mixture on sheet metal to achieve the appropriate gloss level for the vehicle. Gloss level measurements (60° angle) at adjacent parts can also be helpful.

A touch-up/repair of the matted clear coat within the surface (for example, side part or clever repair) is not possible.

Dust inclusions cannot be polish out, so therefore ensure that absolute cleanliness is maintained during the entire painting process.

Apart from color-dependent differences, the actual gloss level is influenced by different factors. In the following comparison, various additional parameters and their effect on the gloss levels are represented.

Higher Gloss Level	Lower Gloss Level
shorter hardener	longer hardener
shorter thinner	longer thinner
higher processing viscosity	lower processing viscosity
higher dry layer thickness	lower dry layer thickness
shorter ventilation time	longer ventilation time
forced drying	Air drying

Influencing Factors on the Gloss Level:

Using different hardeners, thinners, application types, drying conditions and layer thicknesses lead to different gloss levels (up to 20%).

Drying

Final drying time with forced drying is a minimum of 15 to 20 minutes

Matting Component -LVM 769 810 A2

Forced drying at +60 and 65 °C (140° and 149 °F) object temperature for 45 minutes
