2k Factory Baked Clear Gloss is used over metallic paints on cars when manufactured. The shine that is seen a metallic painted car is in fact not the colour it is a 2k clear gloss. This clear gloss is used to ideally protect the metallic paint color as well as give the paint an appealing good look.
Unfortunately when scratch damage happens in Clear Over Base Metallic Paint the clear is the first scratched paint layer, so the clear must be repaired first.
2k factory clear gloss can Also be applied to repair metallic painted surfaces where the clear has started to peel off in spots. By sealing the peeling paint with the clear gloss pen you will possibly be able to slow/stop the peeling effect.
HOW TO USE THE TOUCH UP 2k CLEAR GLOSS PAINT CORRECTLY
Repairing Scratched Or Peeling 2k Clear Gloss?
*Clean Area to be touched up with a cleaning solution
*Shake 2k clear pen contents well before use.
*Remove cap and discharge the initial amount to rubbish by pressing the pen down in an upright position and squeezing the pen body slightly.
*Apply one coat over minor clear scratches. Do not apply 2k clear to good paint.
*If you have peeling paint then fill only the portion that is missing. Note: No need to apply 2k clear gloss to distinctly discoloured deep paint scratches where either bare plastic or metal is visible, use colour paint pen then apply the clear gloss over the top. Allow 3 minutes in between coats
