Learn how to apply wet-on-wet sealer!
The sealer is the support of the finishing paints and has a great influence when it comes to guaranteeing a quality repair. It has to offer a good isolation, helping to cover the color, improving the colorimetry, etc. Currently, sealer has a great influence on the profitability of repairs.
In recent years, repainting works in wet-on-wet versions are becoming more common, since they increase the profitability of the painting processes, since masking times are reduced and the drying times and the subsequent sanding of the equipment are suppressed. ; also, some cleaning. As a result, part of the masking materials (paper, plastics, etc.) and the products used in the preparation are eliminated.
This system is based, mainly, on the application of the rig and the color without the need to previously sand the rig. After the evaporation time of the rigging marked by the manufacturer in its technical sheet, you can apply the finishing color, without having to sand the rig as in the traditional system.
The specific gears for this type of system have a satin appearance, with a little shine and a viscosity similar to finishing paints, for which they are an excellent support. This viscosity and its final and uniform texture make it necessary to apply the rig with spray guns with a 1.3 or 1.4 fluid peak.
It is necessary to respect the evaporation times marked by the technical sheets of the paint manufacturers before applying the finishing paints. This wet-on-wet rigging system can also be completed using different gear scales in gray tones.
