4oz Auto-Air 4030 Intercoat Clear

4030 Intercoat Clear - A non-catalyzed, polyurethane, water-based clear. For use with automotive & hard-surface applications. 4030 has 2 functions: 1) an inter-coat and, 2) an additive mixed with any Createx Colors brand for improved spray performance and coating durability. Mix Additive: Recommend for use with Auto Air Colors, candy₂O, Wicked Colors and Createx Illustration Colors hard-surface & automotive applications. Mix 10% per volume (9:1) or greater directly with paint. Mix well. For best performance, allow mix (including reducer if any) to acclimate for 10 minutes minimum prior to use. 4030 is not a reducer as paint viscosity is not truly lowered. Use 4012 and 4020 Reducers along with 4030. candy₂O must be mixed with 4030 for color formation and coating integrity. Mix 10% or more. 48 hour pot-life after mixing with 4030 Intercoat. Keep colors capped airtight after use. When using a spray-gun and applying base color with an airbrush, 4030 improves flow upon contact with surface for a more level finish. Metallic orientation and dye dispersion in candy₂O, is greatly improved as is the resistance to cratering when medium coats are applied. 4030 also promotes a more durable, scratch resistant finish after air drying. Inter-coat: May be used as semi-gloss, protective clear used over base colors prior to graphics. 4030 dries to a flat, hard and level surface perfect for taping and masking onto with reduced chance of under-spray. 4030 dries to a much flatter surface compared with 4004 Transparent Base and is recommended as Intercoat clear to protect during taping. When 4030 is used as an inter-coat over base candy₂O colors, 4030 should not be applied a second time as additional application of 4030 can re-activate first application allowing candy’s dyes to bleed though subsequent colors. Instead, use 4004 Transparent Base as a non-reactive barrier between subsequent candy applications.
