4000 Base Coat Sealers Auto Air Base Coat Sealer White and Dark are a low build, adhesive sealer coat. Base Coat Sealers have higher adhesion properties that most other Auto Air Colors. They cover well making them ideal for use as an initial coat. Once surface has been prepared, apply either Base Coat Sealer over the entire surface. Base Coat Sealer White and Dark can be used to remove small, minor surface imperfections to create a uniform, even surface for base coat color application. Product works best when sprayed on in light layers. 1 or 2 coats should be applied, although 1 coat will often be enough as the Base Coat Sealer is opaque and covers well. Base Coat Sealers should be cured with heat before applying additional coats. When applied as directed in lightly layered coats, curing time should be quick. Base Coat Sealer Dark should be used as an adhesive primer under most Auto Air Colors for more pronounced effects. Base Coat Sealer Dark is a very black-like grey shade that can be used as a black undercoat to enhance the effects of other colors, such as Auto Air Chameleon Flair Teal/Purple. Base Coat Sealer White can be use as an adhesive primer for under lighter colored base colors to allow for more luminescent, brilliant colors. If needed after curing, Base Coat Sealer White or Base Coat Sealer Dark may be nibbed with dry, fine grit sanding paper or scuffing pad. Any dirt specks or other foreign material should be nibbed off before applying colors. |

4000 Additives - Sealers - Cleaners 4003 Auto Air Reducer Reducer is intended for thinning Auto Air Colors for use with smaller sized airbrushes. Although water may be used up to 10% to thin Auto Air Colors, Reducer is recommended because it adds binder to the colors as it thins them so the adhesive properties of the colors will not be lost. When thinning Auto Air 4600 Series Candy Colors, use Auto Air Transparent Extender. 4004 Auto Air Transparent Base Transparent Base is a transparent binder used for mixing with other color series and for use as a mid-coat. Transparent Base is also used to reduce the concentrated 4600 Series Candy Colors. Although there is no exact ratio, generally Transparent Base is mixed 1:1 with 4600 Series Candy Colors. Transparent Base is used as a mid-coat. Transparent Base creates a more-even surface for tape to apply to and for clear coats to adhere to. This is especially true when taping or clearing 4400 Series Gem Chameleon Colors and 4500 Series Colors. Transparent Base used as a mid-coat also helps prevent cutting into underlying base colors when cutting masking film and tape. Generally, 2 - 3 light coats are applied when using Transparent Base as a mid-coat. Transparent Base can be used to thin all Auto Air Colors and make colors more transparent. Using Transparent Base helps hen using other colors, especially 4200 Series Semi-Opaque and 4300 Series Colors in fades. 4400 Series Gem Chameleon and 4500 Series Hot Rod Sparkle, Cosmic Sparkle and Sparkle Flake Colors are pearl-like flakes in the 4004 Transparent Base. Adding more 4004 Transparent Base to these colors will lessen their concentration per volumes but will not thin the colors for use with smaller sized airbrushes. 4005 Auto Air Opaque Extender Opaque Extender is the binder base for the 4200 Series Semi-Opaque Colors. Opaque Extender may be added to color to increase opacity. Opaque Extender may increase the viscosity of the color and is not recommended for use with smaller airbrushes and fine detail work. Opaque Extender may be added up to 25% of the mixture, after that the colors tend to wash out as the pigment load is spread out. Opaque Extender should not be used with Auto Air 4200 Series Detail Colors nor should it be used with 4300, 4400, 4500, and 4600 Auto Air Series. 4006 Auto Air Catalyst Catalyst is a specialty additive that is often not necessary. It is designed to accelerate the cross-linking process of the binder when the area worked on is too large for curing with heat or in cold or damp conditions. Catalyst should be added in 2-3 drops per ounce and thoroughly mixed with the color. 4007 Auto Air Cleaner Auto Air Cleaner is a waterbased biodegradable cleaner used to clean airbrushes between color changes. Directions: Rinse airbrush with water to remove excess color. Add Cleaner to airbrush and spray until color is completely gone. Rinse with water to remove any Auto Air Cleaner residual. |
