Air spray is the method the dealer states ('air spray, 150 g/m² per coat'). Transfer efficiency up to ~40 % (methods page).

Not the preferred method for a finish enamel; use airmix instead.

Don'ts
  • don't go past the 4 h pot life at 20 °C
  • don't lay heavy coats wet-on-wet — solvent pop risk
  • don't polish or sand the final coat
  • don't swap in PC20 on colours where it isn't listed without asking Technocolor
