Paint: Description and Operation
BASECOAT/CLEARCOAT FINISH
DESCRIPTION
The original equipment finish is a multi step process that involves cleaning, applying electro de-position (E-coat), anti-chip primer, basecoat, and
clearcoat steps.
On most vehicles a two-part paint application (basecoat/clearcoat) is used. Color paint that is applied to primer is called basecoat. The clearcoat protects
the basecoat from ultraviolet light and provides a durable high-gloss finish.
CAUTION:
-
Do not use abrasive chemicals or compounds on painted surfaces. Damage to finish can result.
-
Do not use harsh alkaline based cleaning solvents on painted surfaces. Damage to finish or color can result.
