Depending on color; bright colors usually tend to lose more gloss than
darker colors when adding Matting Component -ALN 775 106-. Other factors
influence the gloss level. Refer to the gloss level influencing factors
table. |

Gloss Level Adjustment/Matting and Application Instructions
Note
Refer to "Gloss Level Adjustment" (5.75) and "Repair Paint Systems For Matte
Painted Vehicles" (5.76).
Application Instructions
Note
- The addition of Elastic Additive -ALZ 011 001- is omitted.
- Stir or shake the Matting Component -LVM 769 810 A2- in the can well.
- With the two-part HS clear coat and two-part HS top coat, mix the
Matting Component -LVM 769 810 A2- according to specification and infuse
with hardener and thinner just before processing. The processing of the
ready-to spray mixture should immediately follow. If the mixture remains in
the mixing- or spray gun receptacle for a longer period of time (15
minutes), it should be stirred again before continuing to use (separation).
- Adding the matting compound can influence the covering capacity.
- It is absolutely necessary to test the respective mixture on sheet metal
to achieve the appropriate gloss level for the vehicle. Gloss level
measurements (60º angle) at adjacent parts can also be helpful.
- A touch-up/repair of the matted clear coat within the surface (for
example, side part or clever repair) is not possible.
- Apart from color-dependent differences, the actual gloss level is
influenced by different factors. In the following comparison, various
additional parameters and their effect on the gloss levels are represented.
