Raise the vehicle on the bridge work.
Be sure to apply plenty of water with high pressure, preferably using a type Hidro-Jet team. The tip of the water jet should approach about 10 centimeters from the surface, to ensure that the force of water actually peel off any soil or dust. Washing with water at low pressure is not enough, unless the all-new vehicles. There are critical points such as flanges edges of the fenders, which normally are not “reached” car washes in common. These points tend to collect dirt and moisture, so corrode faster. Logically, you should be extra careful in them.
This step is absolutely essential.
Use a citrus-based industrial degreaser such as Out-Grease or Citrikleen, diluting it from 1:3 to 1:10 parts of water, as required.
If you are going to use another brand of degreaser, verify that it does not contain solvents derived from petroleum or kerosene, since they leave residues that will affect adhesion.
Apply the degreaser using an air gun, taking care that it reaches all the necessary areas and let it act for about 5 minutes.
Rinse with plenty of water. Repeat this step if necessary. Remove excess water by blowing with air.
Identify unprotected areas on the underside of the vehicle and those that have noise protection from the manufacturer. Of course, be more careful when applying the product on the first ones. Apply the BODY EXTREMEHD evenly on both and moving slowly in one coat until achieving a thickness of approximately 1 millimeter.
A visual guide to estimate the appropriate thickness is to observe that the applied film forms an “orange shell” texture; If not, the thickness is surely very low.
You can use a plastic hose attached to the outlet of the gun or a small section of 5 mm diameter bronze tube screwed onto the tip of the gun (with a maximum of 15 cm in length), bending as needed. to reach difficult places.
The air pressure should be approximately 30 to 40 psi. Higher air pressure generates product “bounce”, which causes product waste and stains for the operator. In addition, the drops will impact with too much force and small “craters” with low thickness are created, which are not recommended.
Observe la homogeneidad de la película formada. En particular, espesores muy delgados (sin apariencia de “concha de naranja”). Re-aplique a discreción (no es necesario esperar a que el producto esté seco para re-aplicar).
Verifique que no quedaron áreas “desprotegidas”.
Pase la mano desnuda por sobre la pintura del vehículo en las áreas cercanas a la aplicación; De esta forma, si ha habido un fogueo griseado del producto, se sentirán al tacto la pequeñas gotas que a veces no se observan a simple vista. En dicho caso, frote un trapo mojado en agua hasta remover.
Mientras el producto se vea de color gris azulado significa que no hasecado. No permita que se moje antes de secar completamente.
Evite entregar el vehículo al Cliente para que circule en condiciones de lluvia antes de que haya secado por completo.
La limpieza de la pistola de aplicación se logra fácilmente haciendo pasar agua a través de ella hasta lograr que pierda su aspecto blanquecino y salga totalmente clara. No permita que el producto se seque dentro de la pistola, ya que será muy difícil removerlo.
