More Information
Summary:A method of painting a substrate coated with an electrocoat, wherein the electrocoat includes an average surface roughness equal to or greater than 3 microns, includes applying a two-component sealer onto the electrocoat to form a film having a thickness of from 5 microns to 20 microns. The two-component sealer is partially cured by application of heat to a gel content of from 10 to 50 wt. %. Thereafter, a topcoat, typically including a basecoat and a clearcoat, is applied onto the two-component sealer. Both the two-component sealer and the topcoat are completely cured by application of heat.
