Quick polishes
There are a variety of bodywork polishes, and today it seems like two distinct types seem to stand out : full car topcoats and quick-drying polishes, which are more for touch-ups and refinishing. paint repair.
Paint manufacturers in the world of refinishing have understood this well : time and space are the number one concern for painters.
When you have a single paint booth, and a number of vehicles to paint and go through the cabin every day, so time is running out ! The solution ? Accelerated drying, without infrared or cooking.
Quick-drying varnishes for car and motorcycle bodywork
There were previously MS or HS type products that were developed to harden quickly, and to varnish a door, a fender, a bumper. The fineness of these products allowed rapid catalysation. Unfortunately, the quality was not there.
In the years 2018 to 2019, we are witnessing the appearance of “Super UHS” quick-drying varnishes. They have been made possible by the entry into their composition of quite phenomenal new acrylic and polyester resins.
These fast super UHS clearcoats (Hi Gloss super UHS ST6000 bodywork varnish) can completely harden in record time : the vehicle can be driven after only 1 hour. When you think that with classic varnishes, you had to wait 24 hours before delivering the keys to customers or polishing !
Economy and ecology
When you win on all counts, that's real progress !
The ultra-fast drying of these lacquers and varnishes (super UHS ST8800 anti-scratch bodywork varnish), saves time and optimizes profitability for body painters, why ?
Simply because the cost of energy consumption (electricity or diesel) for cooking in the cabin or cooking with infrared dryers is reduced to zero !
Fast Super UHS
At first glance, the arrival of these new resins is a small revolution and opens the door to the varnishes of the future : covering, very hard, very shiny, economical and fast...
Their only weak point ? It seems that they are not yet well suited for varnishing large surfaces, such as a complete car. The reason ? They dry too fast! And according to the painters, their brilliance "is buried".
