Repair materials
Repair materials
Volvo's original colors should be used if possible, but as the situation may occur that the recommended paint materials are not available from stock, we
have produced a list of the stock carried by the major paint producers for paint work repairs to Volvo cars.
The list contains the producers' own recommendations and the products below are not guaranteed or stocked by Volvo.
The respective producer should be contacted if more information on any of the products is required.
Note! Always follow the producers' recommendations and do not mix the different producers' systems.
The increased demands for color range, water-based and pearl, worker protection, reduced air pollution and clearer directions on the labels from the
paint suppliers, has led to Volvo Car Corporation changing their previous policy regarding the original color concept. We have also discovered that the
paint mixers in the market place are of a better quality than previously. Therefore, Volvo accepts these for painting cars during the guarantee period.
It is thought important that each paint supplier is individually responsible for the color matching and the quality, as well as for any complaints.
Masking
Masking
A separate roll-holder should be used for masking paper and masking tape to make masking easier.
Use strong lint-free masking paper of sufficient quality to prevent the permeation of solvents.
Use 19 and 39 mm wide elastic masking tape. The tape should be able to withstand temperatures of at least 80°C and not leave adhesive residue after
oven heating. Use the masking tape rationally.
Do not wrap protruding parts such as door handles etc., but instead tape along their edges.
Note! Always stick the tape on firmly to prevent paint runs.
