Explanation of Time Allowances - Paint Stages I, II, II a, II b and III The previously familiar painting stages I, II and III apply for painting individual parts.
• For blending (blending system), painting stage II a applies.
• For touching-up (blending system) painting stage II b applies.
Painting stages II a and II b correspond to painting stage II. Only use drift-in painting / blend-in painting with two-coat paint systems. Paint systems
• 2-coat solid paint systems
• 2-coat metallic paint systems
• 2-coat mica-effect paint systems
As a result of the incorporation of the blending system, the paint systems are extended to include "drift-in painting" and "blend-in painting". These systems are used to achieve optimum colour-matching with solvent-based paint and preparation materials for 2-coat paint systems.
The time allowances for paint operations in the main and combination operations are organised into the following stages:
|

|
|
o |

|
II |

|
|
o |
Top-coat complete surface, including small improvements (without filler application) |
|
