PPG delivers a FASTER, HARDER, BETTER Clearcoat

For bodyshops looking for increased throughput and a high quality finish, PPG Refinish UK has introduced a significant innovation in clearcoat technology; the new PPG D8175 Rapid Performance Clearcoat.

Following extensive field trials, D8175 has proven that high productivity and an exceptional finish is possible, making it easier to achieve a high quality repair and ‘right first time’ results. This cutting edge product also has the capabilities of offering bodyshops a drying time of just 5 minutes at 60°C panel temperature, regardless of humidity.

With its market leading speed, D8175 enables bodyshops to complete work faster to further maximise spraybooth utilisation; increasing job throughput and ultimately profit. The innovative product also offers flexible drying options to suit job scheduling and helps to streamline workflow.  When spraybooth temperature is reduced to 40°C, Rapid Performance Clearcoat will still dry within 20 minutes delivering significant energy savings and D8175 can be air dried using no energy at all.

In addition to these benefits, the outstanding through-cure properties allows for fast handling straight from the booth once cooled. This allows for quick re-fits, providing the customer with a faster Key to Key time.

As with every product from PPG, Rapid Performance Clearcoat is user friendly offering easy application for any repair type from spot and panel repair to full respray; with no compromise on appearance even for the largest areas. D8175 delivers a flawless mirror-like appearance and with no need to polish this product further reducing process time whilst delivering an outstanding finished result.
