Paint: Service and Repair
Paintwork
General Information
The initial preparation of a repaired or replacement panel is very important to ensure that when finished the paintwork is of a standard that meets and
matches the existing bodywork. Replacement panels and repairs must be thoroughly degreased with Berger Preclean 802.0516 or a suitable alternative,
any unsound paint must be removed using Berger Double Strength Meltic 301.8051. The paint manufacturers instructions should always be referred to.
Paintwork processes should be performed by a specialist bodyshop where paint spraying can be undertaken in a controlled environment where
temperatures are kept constant and the atmosphere dust free.
The flow chart below gives a guide to preparing and painting a panel. Wherever possible refer to the Berger Vehicle Refinishes Product Data and
Application Sheets for further information.
