Mixing matrix

  • AC40Hardener
    % by weight: 10–20 (typ. 15) %dealer% by volume: 15–25 %dealer

    always — 2K system

    Run towards 20 % for kitchen/bath resistance, towards 10 % for more flex. Weigh the hardener.

  • S50 / S80Thinner
    % by weight: 30–40 %dealer% by volume: 40–50 %dealer

    S50 universal/normal, verticals; S80 slow, above ~25 °C and on large flats

    S80 levels better but catches more dust and sags easier; neither changes cure time.

  • S50 / S80Thinner
    % by weight: 40–50 %dealer

    open-pored timber (oak, ash) — better colour and pore definition; apply 200–250 g/m²

    dealer note (basis — weight/volume — not stated); dealer table lists only S50, S80 added per catalog thinner list

  • AC40Hardener
    % by weight: 20 %schedule

    schedule 'Oak kitchen fronts, decapé effect (acrylic)', step 7 — 'APL20 (RAL,NCS)'

    Schedule writes 'C40' — almost certainly AC40. The schedule specifies RAL-tinted APL enamel, which is what APL R1013 M is.

Coats

Recoat

Sanding between coats

HVLP, 1.7–1.8 mm tip, 2.0–2.5 bar inlet with the trigger pulled, ≤0.7 bar at the cap, fan wide open, 15–20 cm, 50–75 % overlap.

Conventional spray

Consumption

Air spray is the manufacturer's stated method. Transfer efficiency up to ~40 % per the methods page.

Airmix (air-assisted airless)

Nozzle
09–11 thou (0.23–0.28 mm), 40–50° fanrecommended

Airmix beats airless for a finish coat.

Airless

Nozzle
11–13 thou (0.28–0.33 mm)recommended

Not ideal for a finish coat — coarser atomisation; prefer airmix.

Electrostatic

Why ru
На странице методов сказано, что любые системы распыления можно использовать в электростатическом режиме; для конкретного продукта подтверждения нет.

Works combined with any spray method — chairs, legs; check the mix conductivity first.

Don'ts
  • don't eyeball AC40 — weigh it
  • don't use the mix past its 6 h pot life
  • don't brush — spray only
  • not for exterior — interior furniture enamel
  • don't sand or polish the final 20-gloss coat — it goes patchy
  • stir part A thoroughly first — the pigment settles

Storage

Packaging

Safety: Flammable solvent-borne coating; AC40 hardener is likely isocyanate-based. Spray in a booth with extraction, wear an A2P3 respirator (or air-fed), nitrile gloves. No naked flames.
