always — fixed ratio for DM
The catalog gives PC60 30*–50 % for PPL RAL; the asterisk marks the DM variants (PPLR9003 DM*) — 30 %. The 50 % figure is for the M variants, not DM. PC60 is aliphatic and non-yellowing, which matters on a white.

Catalog: S50 20–30 %. S50 is the universal, medium-evaporation thinner; it doesn't change cure time.

Not stated by Technocolor for R9003 DM — our recommendation only. More dust pick-up and sag risk; doesn't change cure time.

HVLP, 1.8 mm tip (1.7–2.0), 2.0–2.5 bar at the inlet with trigger pulled, ≤0.7 bar at the cap, fan wide open, 15–20 cm, 50–75 % overlap. Stir the dead-flat enamel thoroughly before adding hardener (the matting agent settles). Don't lay it on heavy — thick wet films go blotchy in sheen on DM. recommended
Conventional spray

Air spray is the method the dealer gives ('Распыление краскопультом'). Transfer efficiency only ~40 % (methods page). source

For production runs of fronts. On DM keep film build even or sheen will vary. recommended
Airless

Not the preferred method for a dead-flat finish enamel — use airmix. recommended

Possible with electrostatic airmix/air guns (chairs, legs) — same settings as above. recommended
Process and compatibility
- Substrate preparation
- MDF/wood primed with white PU primer (PPS20 ×2 or PPS50277), primer sanded P320–P400, dedustedrecommended
- Sanding
- primer P320–P400; between enamel coats P400–P500/grey pad denib; never sand or polish the final coatrecommended
- Temperature and humidity
- 18–25 °C material, room and substrate (not below 15 °C), RH 50–70 %recommended
- Don'ts
- don't use the mix past 4 h (20 °C)
- don't add PC60 at 50 % — that's the M-variant ratio
- don't thin past 30 % — DM loses flatness and hide
- don't lay heavy coats wet-on-wet — solvent pop
- don't sand or polish the final coat
- don't skip stirring part A thoroughly before mixing
Storage

- Storage temperature

- Packaging

Safety: Use respiratory, hand and eye protection and overalls. The hardener contains isocyanates — use an A2/P2 respirator or supplied air. Keep away from children. Dispose of waste per regulations.
