APL R9005 M

Acrylic enamel, Jet Black RAL 9005 (20 gloss)

Two-pack acrylic enamel (cured with AC40), factory-tinted to Jet Black RAL 9005, 20 gloss. Tough, flows out well in thin coats, flexible and shows the open grain nicely. Use it as a top coat in its own right or as the black ground under special effects (chrome; for pearl the catalog names the PU analogue PPL RAL 9005) and light-coloured patina.

  • kitchen furniture
  • bathroom furniture
  • top coat
  • black ground for the chrome effect (and pearl — the catalog specifies the PU enamel PPL RAL 9005 for pearl)
  • ground coat under light patina (decapé)

Mixing matrix

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

    always — it's a 2K system

    Catalog, dealer (APL R9003 M) and the official APL20 M base page all give 10–20 % w/w (15–25 % v/v). Go towards 20 % for kitchen/bath resistance (the decapé schedule uses 20 %); 15 % midpoint is a sensible default (none published).

  • S50Thinner
    % by weight: 30–40 %dealer% by volume: 40–50 %dealer

    default: universal thinner, normal conditions, verticals

    S50 is normal-evaporation, the default. Doesn't change cure time.

  • S80Thinner
    % by weight: 30–40 %catalog% by volume: 40–50 %official

    above ~25 °C, large flat panels

    Catalog and the official APL20 M base page list S50/S80; the dealer APL R9003 M card lists S50 only. S80 is slow — better levelling but more dust pick-up and sag risk.

  • S50Thinner
    % by weight: 40–50 %dealer

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

    Dealer note (APL R9003 M card; text names APL R1013 M by mistake — shared APL RAL series text). Dealer just says 'thin by 40–50 %' without stating the basis; read as % by weight on part A, like the main table.

  • AC40Hardener
    % by weight: 20 %schedule

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

    Schedule writes 'C40' — read AC40. Schedule is for tinted APL20; APL R9005 M is the same enamel ready-tinted.

  • S50Thinner
    % by weight: 30 %schedule

    same decapé schedule, step 7

Percentages are per 100 parts of component A.

Don'ts
  • don't eyeball AC40 — weigh it
  • don't use the mix past 6 h pot life
  • don't brush — spray only
  • don't sand or polish the final 20-gloss coat — patchy sheen is glaring on black
  • don't sand coarser than P400 before the final coat — scratches telegraph through black

Storage

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