Substrates

• Steel, galvanized steel, stainless steel, aluminum – prime surfaces with a 2K epoxy primer or 2K acrylic primer, sand using abrasive paper with gradation from P180 to P320, clean and degrease (Silicone Remover Troton).
• Polyester laminates – sand using abrasive paper P180 or by using Troton’s unwoven abrasive fabric, clean and degrease (Silicone Remover Troton).
• Polyester body fillers – sand using abrasive paper with gradation from P120 to P240, clean and degrease (Silicone Remover Troton).
• Plastic surfaces – degrease (Silicone Remover Troton), sand with abrasive paper P240 or with Troton’s unwoven abrasive fabric, degrease again (Silicone Remover Troton), prime with an adhesive promoter, such as Plastic Primer Troton. Due to the many different types of plastic, adhesion testing is advised.

 Do not apply the product directly on bare metal. Rangers should be applied on primed surfaces or on 2K topcoats and basecoats after proper preparation (be careful with the application on old coatings, thinner testing is advised). Always abrade, clean and degrease the surface before application. Do not apply Rangers directly on bare original paint or directly on coatings of car body parts from the aftermarket.

 Application process UBS gun

Mixing proportion

3:1 - by weight: 790g+210g, by volume: 630ml+210ml

Shake the product before opening. Open the lid, add hardener and close back the lid. Shake very well.

Number of layers

2 layers. 1 dry layer of approx. 150µm. 1

First layer: spray evenly with sweeping motion and pressure of 2-4 bar until the proper coverage is obtained. The distance from the surface to be painted should be of approx. 50cm.  Allow to flash off for 30÷50 minutes between coats. In order to obtain the desired texture reduce the pressure and increase the distance from the surface to be painted. To achieve fine texture, apply the second layer with a fine spray by reducing the pressure and material flow. The distance from the object and pressure change the created structure.

Drying time

• Dust dry: 1 h/ 20°C
• Touch dry - ready for assembly: 3 days/ 20°C
• Final drying (severe conditions): 7 days/ 20°C

Temperatures below 20°C significantly increase the hardening time.

Baking

In order to accelerate the physical drying time we recommend baking under a maximum temperature of 45°C for 50-60 minutes. Before baking wait the appropriate evaporating time of 1,5 to 2 hours after application. Caution! Baking does not accelerate the final drying time. It is recommended to wait 7 days to achieve total hardness of the coating (under severe conditions).

 Application proces gravity feed spray gun

Mixing proportion

• 3:1 + 10÷20% thinner for acrylic systems
• By weight: 790g+210g+74÷148g
• By volume: 630ml+210ml+ 84÷168ml

Shake the product before opening. Open the lid, add hardener and close back the lid. Shake very well.

Number of layers

2 layers. 1 dry layer of approx. 50µm

First layer – spray evenly with sweeping motion, pressure of 2 bar until the proper coverage is obtained. The distance from the surface to be painted should be of 40cm. Allow to flash off for 30÷50 minutes between coats. In order to obtain the desired texture reduce the pressure and increase the distance from the surface to be painted. To achieve fine texture, apply the second layer with a fine mist spray by reducing the pressure and material flow.
