Spot Repairs with Autocryl^®

Description

The term spot repair is understood to include all repairs to damaged areas resulting in the repaired area blending invisibly into the still intact existing finish. As a result, the car refinisher is not compelled to spray large panels in the case of minor damage. The spot repair technique also enables minor differences in color and effect between the original car finish and the repair to be made invisible.

Preparation

These notes apply for both solid and 1 step metallic colors.
