Volkswagen Polo Service & Repair Manual: Aqua Premium System, Touch-Up System for Two Layer Colors
| Product Description/Objective |
| To achieve an optically flawless color shade transition in
the blended area or adjacent parts, for example fender/door. |
| For plastic surfaces prime with Glazing Adhesion Promoter -
ALO 822 000 10- and rework with elastified Two-part HS. |
|
|
|
| Pre-treatment of base surfaces: |
| – |
Clean the factory or old paint or two-part HS filler
thoroughly with Silicone Remover -LVM 020 000 A5- or Silicone
Remover, Long -LVM 020 100 A5-. |
|
|
|
| – |
Sand the repair area with P500-P600 grit sandpaper or
wet-sand with water-resistant P800-1000 sandpaper. |
|
|
|
| – |
Sand the adjacent area (around the vehicle parts and the
repair area) thoroughly with P1000-3000 sandpaper, only wet
sand. |
 Note
| If beading, edges or grip recesses are present, use a
sanding pad beforehand. |
|
|
|
| – |
Clean the entire surface thoroughly with Silicone Remover -LVM
020 000 A5- to remove dust, sanding residue and other dirt. |
| – |
Wipe off any residual silicone remover with a lint-free
cloth, leaving no streaks. |
|
|
|
| – |
Allow wet-sanded surfaces and cleaned surfaces to dry
completely. |
| When using a dust extraction, use next generation towels
with an effective light adhesive formula to minimize the risk of
chemical or adhesive residue (for example, Dust Cloth
-VAS6177-). Refer to
→ Chapter „Dust Cloth -VAS6177-“. |
| Insulate sanded-through areas with Two-Part Wash Primer -LHV
043 000 A2- and then fill with Two-Part HS Performance Filler. |
|
|
|
| Repair process, touch-up the neighboring surfaces (for
example color matching fender/door) |
| – |
Apply 1-2 preliminary spray applications of the Touch-Up
Additive For Aqua Premium -LVM 035 100 A3--2-
in the blended area with normal spray pressure on the old
paint/filled surface -1-. |
Note
| Pay attention that the blended area is large enough. |
|
|
|
| – |
Then the first base paint spray application
-1- is lightly applied from the
blended area into the wet touch-up additive
-2-. |
|
|
|
| – |
In the second step a further reduced spray application
-2- follows without a drying time.
Pay attention that the spray application is applied in the area
previously shifted forward -1- to
archive an even effect. |
|
|
|
| – |
After the touch-up painting the connection area and the
remaining surfaces (starting from the new part)
-1- in 1.5 spray applications
(standard process) are painted. |
|
|
|
| – |
After ventilating, apply a two-part HS clear coat
-1- over the entire repair surface. |
|
|
|
| Repair process, touch-up the neighboring surfaces (for
example color matching fender/door, alternative method for solid
and dark effect color shades). |
| – |
Apply 1-2 preliminary spray applications of the Touch-Up
Additive For Aqua Premium -LVM 035 100 A3--2-
in the blended area with normal spray pressure on the old
paint/filled surface -1-. |
Note
| Pay attention that the blended area is large enough. |
|
|
|
| – |
Then apply the first base paint spray application
-3- from the blended area (starting
from the new part) to the edge of the wet touch-up additive
-2-. Immediately after that, apply
the half effect/finish spray application onto the wet touch-up
additive -2- and to the new part
-1-, from a distance. |
|
|
|
| – |
After touch-up painting the base paint application
-1- takes place on the remaining
surfaces in 1.5 spray applications (standard process). |
|
|
|
| – |
After ventilating, apply a two-part HS clear coat
-1- over the entire repair surface. |
Note
| Starting with the first spray application, it is recommended
to even out the subsequent repair area spray applications
starting from the touch-up area that is farthest out. For that
reason, the subsequent spray applications should always be
remain inside the previous spray application in order to archive
an even effect. |
| While processing the Aqua premium water-based base paint,
the spray gun material flow/trigger remains completely open. |
| The spraying pressure for the effect spray application can
vary between 1.5 and 2.0 bar depending on the size of the
object. |
|
|
|
| Repair process, touching-up minimal damage for example
clever repair. |
Note
| The repair/filler area should be kept as small as possible. |
| For most colors, use the adjusted water-based base paint. |
| It is recommended for colors with a high percentage of metal
to adjust the Aqua premium water-based base paint in a 1:1 ratio
with Touch-Up Additive for Aqua Premium -LVM 035 100 A3- + 10 %
Flop Control -LWM 085 386 A2- (Additive For Aqua Premium -LVM
035 200/301- is not required). Use the Aqua Premium dipstick for
clever repair. |
| Depending on the color and covering capacity, apply 3-5
spray applications of this mixture with reduced pressure
(0.8-1.5 bar) to the repair area/run-off area. Make sure that
each spray application is performed a little bit further and
allowed to ventilate and matt. The ventilation time can be
accelerated by blowing. |
|
|
|
| – |
After an appropriate final ventilation time, the clear coat
can be applied. |
Note
| While processing the Aqua premium water-based base paint,
the spray gun material flow/trigger remains completely open. |
| For efficient ventilating and drying, stationary blowing
devices or forced drying (for example heated drying) are
recommended. |
| The spray devices should be suitable for use with
water-soluble products; see manufacturer's information. |
| The Aqua Premium mixing paints can only be used within the
color tone formulas. |
| When processing individual mixing paints on their own, major
deviations from the information given in the application
instructions are possible. |
| Rinse before and after using with Aquaplus Purified Water -LVW
010 000 A5-. Then rinse with Nitrocellulose Thinner -LVE 856 000
A3-. |
| Collect liquid waste from water-soluble products and
separate from liquid waste from conventional products. When
mixing materials, disposal may no longer be possible, which is
difficult and costly. |
|
|
|
| Personal Protective Equipment: |
| Note the safety data sheets |
| Wear the personal protective equipment during application |
