DANGER!

Excessively high drying temperatures endanger life! High tem‐

Note

♦ The specifications of coat thickness are approximate because


thickness can vary depending on colour and differences be‐
tween horizontal and vertical surfaces.
♦ The specifications may be exceeded by individual vehicles
which have been repainted once or several times. However,
this need not be communicated.

2.2 Paintwork in Aftersales


Panels galvanised on both sides
Earlier attempts at flanged pairings have resulted in the fact that
only panels that are galvanised on both sides are used now. Only
in this way can the cathodic protection and the barrier effect of
the zinc layer work together to provide optimum results. In par‐
ticular, the cut edges which are less well protected by paint
(subject to thinning of the paint coating at the edge) are provided
with additional protection. swa

Note

♦ Seam seals made during repair work must be identical in ap‐


pearance and thickness to the original seam seals.
♦ To avoid damage or faulty operation, brush seam seals
smooth near attachments which must be attached.
♦ Water drainage holes must remain clear.
♦ All threaded studs and welded nuts with metric threads as well
as all other studs and contact surfaces for assembly must be
functional following the extent of the sealing work.
♦ Sealant must never be applied to bare metal. Substrates must
always be coated with surfacer first.

To prevent water from penetrating into flanges, panel folds in crit‐


ical areas of the body are sealed with paste-form, solvent-free
PVC. A varying thickness of PVC layer is also sprayed onto pre‐
cisely defined zones on the external floor pan and in the wheel
housings to protect against stone chips and prevent droning.

Wax sealing/cavity sealing
Wax/cavity sealing plays a key role in terms of corrosion protec‐

the area of application. The outstanding protection offered by
these materials is based on the following properties:
♦ Hydrophobic (non-absorbent).
♦ Good adhesion.
♦ No undermining by rust.
♦ Permeability to water vapour some 1,500 times less than a
paint coating of the same thickness.

2.7 Corrosion protection measures for wing surface in contact with wheel hous‐
ing liner

Note

♦ The corrosion protection measure is to be carried out in the groove of the wing of all new replacement parts
which have not had the additional sealant applied at the factory.
♦ The additional sealant is intended to prevent the wheel housing liner from possibly “scouring” the groove of
the wing, which could cause corrosion.

– Apply surfacer on inside and outside of wing.

– Remove corrosion using
⇒ “4.1.6 Pneumatic brush grinder set VAS 6446 ”,
page 350 or
⇒ “4.1.7 Brush grinder set VAS 6776 ”, page 351 .
– Smooth off transitions using sandpaper (P360 to P400 grade).
– Clean substrate using silicon remover .
– After a corrosion damage has been repaired and before seal‐
ing, isolate substrate using 2-pack wash primer - LHV 043 000
A2- , and then apply 2-pack HS Performance surfacer .

General information, Paint - Edition 11.2015

– As soon as the surfacer is completely dry, treated areas must


be dry-sanded using P400 to P500 sandpaper. When sanding,
take particular care not to “sand through”. Afterwards, clean
sanded surfaces with silicon remover .
– After sanding the dry surfacer, the metal edges in the fold area
must be sealed with fine seam sealant
⇒ “3.15 Sealing materials”, page 264 . Ensure that the fine
seam seals are identical in appearance to the original seam
seals, as specified in the ⇒ »Vehicle-specific paintwork infor‐
mation« for the particular vehicle.

Note

♦ Seam seals made during repair work must be identical in ap‐


pearance and thickness to the original seam seals.
♦ To avoid damage or faulty operation, brush seam seals

♦ Water drainage holes must remain clear.

Note

♦ On vehicles with ACC, the trim in the right-hand cover of the


front bumper must not be painted during a repair paint job or
replacement. The ACC system located behind can become
operational due to the thickness of the added paint layer.
♦ The cover over the distance control sensor in the bumper grille
consists of radar-permeable material. The cover is heatable,
in order to prevent functions from being impaired by snow and
ice.
♦ All changes to the surface, such as retrospective paintwork,
stickers and other retrospectively applied objects may result
in functional impairment.

The temperature and humidity ranges listed in the table are ap‐
proximate values and always depend on the local conditions. I.e.,
the air flow in the booth, the spray guns (type and/or nozzle size)
and the application itself have a strong influence on the film for‐
mation and the quality of the coat.
Assuming that in a modernly equipped painting business, a han‐
dling temperature of at least +20 ℃ is guaranteed, special meas‐
ures regarding humidity are only necessary when the humidity is
outside of the handling range.
Measures to be taken when relative humidity is too high
If the relative humidity is too high, deviations in shade, clouding
in metallic colours and an absence of holding power on vertical
surfaces can occur. Raising the temperature in the spray booth
can remedy this, provided the user finds this acceptable. Use only
additive for Aqua Premium - LVM 035 200- .
Measures to be taken when relative humidity is too low
If the humidity is too low, it can result in increased levels of spray
mist and decreased spray mist absorption. Lowering the handling
temperature (if possible), can remedy this; however, the temper‐
ature must remain above +18 ℃. Use only additive for Aqua
Premium - LVM 035 301- .
Airing times and reworking times
In the case of water-based products, the airing times between
spray passes and end airing or reworking times are negatively
influenced by low temperatures and high humidity. The drying
process between the individual spray passes or before further re‐
working can be accelerated by:
♦ Accelerated discharge of humid air through blowing with var‐
iable and stationary air acceleration systems with and without
drying (hand-held units, floor-mounted appliances, ceiling sys‐
tems etc.)
♦ Oven drying
♦ Infrared drying

While other hardeners or thinners not described in this data sheet


may also be used, they may result in different gloss levels (up to
20%) in the same way as different application types, drying con‐
ditions and layer thicknesses do.
Higher gloss Low gloss
Faster-drying hardener Slow-drying hardener
Faster-drying thinners Slower-drying thinners
Higher application viscosity Higher application viscosity
Higher dry layer thickness Lower dry layer thickness
Shorter flash-off time Longer flash-off time

Note

It is absolutely necessary to use spray samples prior to applica‐


tion in order to achieve the gloss level that matches the vehicle.
Measuring the gloss level (at an angle of 60°) on adjacent com‐
ponents may also be helpful.

– Apply in 2 spray passes with a flash-off time of 5 to 10 minutes


between the passes. The first coat is applied with restraint, but
still uniformly (observe application instructions).
The specified thickness for the dry film is 60-80 µm.
Application instructions
To achieve the best possible and homogeneous matting effect,
the following points should be adhered to during application:

Note

♦ The spraying distance to the object is somewhat greater than


the standard application in order to use the spray atomisation
to its fullest effect. (Prevents streaking)
♦ It must be ensured that “spray passes” featheredge evenly and
an adequately wet spray film is applied. Application in exces‐
sively dry conditions poses the risk of clouding due to uneven
flash-off or due to the spray mist not being absorbed.
♦ For paint with poor covering properties, it may be necessary
to apply another spray pass after a suitable flash-off time.
♦ Blending in or refinishing the matt clear coat within a compo‐
nent, e.g. a side panel, or speed repair is not possible.

Issue 03.2010
This universal system allows simple and reliable painting of all
external plastic components in standard applications. (Synthetic
types: PP, EPDM, ABS, PC, PPO, PBTP, UP-GF, PA, PVC, R-
TPU, PUR). This technical data sheet is not applicable for factory-
primed plastic components.

General information, Paint - Edition 11.2015

– The substrate must be free of release agents. Before cleaning


plastic parts, temper them for 60 minutes at +60 ℃ to sweat
out the separating agents.
– Clean with anti-static plastic cleaner - LKR 001 001 A3- or with
the milder slow-drying silicone remover - LSE 20 100 A3- .
The effort required for cleaning depends on the type and quantity
of the release agent used. It is recommended to use an emery
pad to help in cleaning. Let the thinner evaporate completely (e.g.
air-dry overnight at ambient temperature or for 30-40 minutes at
+60°C).

♦ It is recommended that starting with the first spray pass, all


subsequent spray passes are already matched to the repair
area, starting from the furthest blending area. I.e., all subse‐
quent spray passes remain within the previous spray pass to
ensure a uniform effect.
♦ Keep the material flow trigger of the spray gun completely
open while applying Aqua Premium waterborne base coat.
♦ The spray pressure for the effect coat may be varied between
1.5 and 2.0 bar depending on the size of the object.

base coat.
The individual layers of water-based base paint can be dried us‐
ing air nozzles or at increased booth temperatures. These are
also the most effective drying methods.
The thickness of the individual layers shall not exceed 40 µm.
Otherwise the film may be detached when removing the masking
tape, the coverage may be insufficient or issues may arise during
drying.
Multi-colour paintwork with insulation layer
To prevent »bleed-through« and colour distortion in the individual
colour layers of multi-colour paintwork systems, it is advisable to
insulate the individual layers with 2-pack clear coat.
The 2-pack HS Vario clear coat - L2K 769 K01 A5- cross-linked
with fast-drying 2-pack HS hardener - LHA 021 004 A3- may be
used for this.
To attain acceptable drying and coverage, the use of slower-dry‐
ing hardeners is not recommended.
The insulating layer must be applied only onto the Aquaplus wa‐
terborne base coat.
The steps required are set out below based on the example of a
3-colour multi-colour paintwork system.

The special combination of pigments and binders provides good


corrosion protection and adhesion and is also certified suitable
for application on welded joints. However, because this product
is non-conductive, it is not suitable for use with spot-weld work.
It is recommended to apply a coat of 2-pack HS surfacer over the
1-pack anti-corrosion wash primer - ALN 002 003 10- at remaining
rust spots on corners and edges, as well as areas which have
been sanded bare.

Substrate pre-treatment:
The substrate must be free of release agents.
Before cleaning plastic parts, temper them for 60 minutes at
+60 ℃ to “sweat out” the release agents.
– Clean with anti-static plastic cleaner - LVM 001 001 A2- or with
the milder slow-drying silicone remover - LVM 020 100 A5- .

Note

♦ The effort required for the necessary cleaning depends on the


type and quantity of the release agent used. It is recommen‐
ded to use an emery pad to help in cleaning.
♦ Let the thinner evaporate completely (e.g. air-dry overnight at
ambient temperature or for 30-40 minutes at +60 °C).

♦ The minimum flash-off time before the application of a water‐
borne base coat increases to 45 minutes at 20+ °C ambient
temperature.
♦ Force drying (oven drying) increases to 45 minutes when used
as a “sanding surfacer”.
♦ Any substrate defects can be treated with 2-pack polyester
filler. After drying and intermediate sanding, isolate the filler
patches with 2-pack HS mixture surfacer.
♦ When isolating certain spots - even on problem substrates -
the best results are achieved with a medium film thickness of
60-120 μm in 2 coats, after either air drying overnight, force
drying or infrared drying. With problem substrates, careful pre‐
treatment is imperative, and the surfacer must be applied to
the entire surface.
♦ For isolating thermoplastic paint, 2-pack HS Vario surfacer -
LGF 786 004 A4- , grey is recommended.
♦ For air drying, a minimum temperature of +8-15 °C and the
use of 2-pack HS hardener, extra fast-drying - LHA 009 046
A2- is recommended.

Substrate pre-treatment:
The substrate must be free of release agents.
Before cleaning plastic parts, temper them for 60 minutes at
+60 ℃ to “sweat out” the release agents.
– Clean with anti-static plastic cleaner - LVM 001 001 A2- or with
the milder slow-drying silicone remover - LVM 020 100 A5- .

Note

♦ The effort required for the necessary cleaning depends on the


type and quantity of the release agent used. It is recommen‐
ded to use an emery pad to help in cleaning.
♦ Let the thinner evaporate completely (e.g. air-dry overnight at
ambient temperature or for 30-40 minutes at +60 °C).

– Before applying the surfacer, clean lightly once more with anti-
static plastic cleaner - LVM 001 001 A2- or slow-drying silicone
remover - LVM 020 100 A5- (with anti-static effect).

The substrate must be free of release agents. Before cleaning


plastic parts, temper them for 60 minutes at +60℃ to sweat out
the separating agents.
– Clean parts with anti-static plastic cleaner - LVM 001 001- or
slow-drying silicone remover - LVM 020 100- .
The extent of the cleaning required will vary according to the type
and quantity of separator used.
The use of an emery pad is recommended to obtain optimum
cleaning results.

Let the thinner evaporate completely (e.g. air-dry overnight or for


30 to 40 minutes at +60°C).
– Before applying the wet-in-wet surfacer, clean lightly once
more with anti-static plastic cleaner - LVM 001 001- or slow-
drying silicone remover - LVM 020 100- (with anti-static effect).

– It is necessary to apply 2 to 3 additional spray coats of some
effect paints to match the effect. Normal spray coats are ap‐
plied “wet-on-wet” without intermediate flash-off.

Note

♦ It is recommended that all coats, starting with the first coat, are
applied from the furthest blending area to the base colour in
the repair area. This way, all subsequent coats remain within
the previous coat to avoid visible edges or shadows.
♦ To make it easier to evaluate the effect, it is recommended to
spray a sample object before every spray coat application.

Ways to reduce flash-off time: Prote AG.

♦ Surface matting can be accelerated by blowing on it with an


air diffuser or force drying with infrared radiation or low baking.
♦ It is also possible to blow on it with the spray gun after waiting
at least 5 minutes.
♦ Drying time: at least 5 minutes.

Anti-corrosion wax - AKR 321 M15 4- and anti-corrosion wax -


AKR 321 M16 10- are aerosol wax-based rust-protection agents.
The film which remains after drying is strongly adhesive, tough,
plastic, water-repellent and nearly colourless.
The flow point of the dry substance is over +100 ℃, meaning that
running or dripping is unlikely even in the engine compartment.
The dry film adheres well to untreated and painted surfaces.
Technical data sheet
Application
♦ Used for preserving seams, surfaces and cavities of vehicles.
♦ Its light colour makes it especially suitable for protecting
seams on the bonnet and in the boot.
♦ The material is also preferred for preserving the cleaned en‐
gine compartment.

Note

♦ Before using, read the safety measures and recommendations


in the safety data sheet.
♦ Even for products which are not required by law to be labelled,
the usual safety measures for chemical products must be ob‐
served.

– The parts to be treated with anti-corrosion wax should be


cleaned and dried thoroughly beforehand, and any rust must
be removed.
– Shake the can well before use. Spray on anti-corrosion wax
and allow it to dry. Do not apply to visible exterior surfaces
because the dry film has a flat appearance.

Caution

If engine compartments of vehicles or other equipment are


treated with sealant, the engines should not be switched on . Volkswagen AG

It is a thixotropic solution with good atomizing properties, ideal for
protecting areas that are difficult to access such as narrow gaps
between panels.
This cavity protectant infiltrates and displaces moisture and con‐
tains a high proportion of rust inhibitors.
The cavity protectant is very finely atomized during spraying, has
outstanding creep properties, penetrates well into narrow gaps
(such as welded seams) which need protection but does not run
significantly out of seams.

The material can be applied even at low temperatures above 10


°C, but its creep properties improve when the product and the
bodywork are at ambient temperature.
When completely dry, this product forms a waxy film which is

♦ All trim parts are to be removed. Any existing rust is to be re‐


moved as completely as possible.
♦ To treat hard-to-reach surfaces (e.g. partial cavities in doors
etc.), the spray nozzle is replaced by the spray tube in the cap.
♦ The material should be at ambient temperature during appli‐
cation.
♦ If the material is stored for a long time or if the temperature
falls below +10 ℃, it becomes more thixotropic. Therefore, the
can must be vigorously shaken before use so that the rattling
of the ball can be heard.
♦ The body parts should be cleaned of dust and grease and then
sprayed evenly. The can should be held vertically when spray‐
ing.
♦ When working with the “spray tube”, it can be slowly guided in
circles in all directions.
♦ The spray head with the round spray nozzle enables the ap‐
plication of a fine, even coat on surfaces such as vehicle
underbodies, giving these a perfect appearance.

Permanent underseal can be overpainted with both water-based


and solvent-based paints. Due to the large number of systems
available in the market, test spraying is necessary.

1- Overpainting with water-based paints:


– After drying to a matt surface and up to 72 hours following
application, permanent underseal can be overpainted using
water-based paints.
2- Overpainting with conventional solvent-based paints:
– After drying thoroughly and up to 72 hours following applica‐
tion, permanent underseal can be overpainted using solvent-
based paints. The material is a fast-drying thick-coat system.
When accelerating drying with forced air, ensure that the fast-
developed skin is not blown away over the still-wet material on
which it is floating. This can cause cracking in the finish.

Designation:
♦ Underseal - D 314 D39 A3- , black
Issue 08.2015
Product description:
This underseal provides active corrosion protection, a high ad‐
hesiveness, good protection of edges, ideal substrate wetting,
high opacity, easy application, and many more features. It may
also be applied to surfaces with flash rust or where rust has been
removed by hand. Such surfaces are penetrated which stops the
corrosion.
Can be applied using a brush or a paint roller as supplied, or can
be sprayed on using any system after thinner has been added.
Consists of just one component and can be applied at tempera‐
tures between +5°C and 30°C. It needs to dry in the air. Do not
heat up for drying. Dust dry after approx. 30 minutes, can be re‐
coated any time without sanding.
Can be applied directly to steel, aluminium, stainless steel and
other materials (especially suited for composite design). Adheres

– Clean the surface which is to be treated.


– Remove any rust as thoroughly as possible. If necessary,
mask off any areas which are not to be coated. Apply under‐
seal.
– Make sure there is sufficient material applied to critical areas
(corners, edges, holes, weld seams, etc.).
Prepare any critical areas, as necessary, or rework them accord‐
ingly at any given time.
Can be applied to any common sealants, except for silicone. On
sealants which contain plasticisers (and which should not be
coated with 1-pack-materials), the surface of the underseal may
remain sticky. In general, it is always better to apply the underseal
first (corrosion protection, adhesiveness), and then the sealants.

Application
♦ The material is used primarily on the underbody, especially for
treatment and maintenance of all protective coats of materials
based on, for example, PVC, PVC/wax, bitumen/rubber and
rubber/resin basis.
♦ It can also be used to treat shafts as well as suspension com‐
ponents including links and springs. These parts become grey
with age and often display incipient rust. The treatment re‐
freshes the paint, which improves the appearance substan‐
tially. At the same time, the parts are protected against
corrosion.

Note

♦ Before using, read the safety measures and recommendations


in the safety data sheet.
♦ Even for products which are not required by law to be labelled,
the usual safety measures for chemical products must be ob‐
served.

Application
♦ The surfaces to be treated with wax underseal must be
cleaned thoroughly beforehand, and any rust must be re‐
moved.
♦ The surfaces must be dry and free of grease, dirt and, as far

Issued 01.2008
Product description
Wax underseal - D 316 000 A1- offers excellent long-term under‐
body corrosion protection.
Wax underseal is based on a solvent-free, oxidative-drying sys‐
tem and offers excellent underbody corrosion protection.
This corrosion protection is the result of very good adhesion to
metal surfaces at both very low and high temperatures.
The product creates a light-brown, elastic coating which is firm to
the touch.
It is not necessary to raise the temperature to produce a film
coating.

Bonding properties
♦ Polyurethane adhesive sealant - AKD 476 KD5 05- offers good
adhesion without glass or paint primer on primed or painted
metal bodywork, on wood (untreated, varnished or painted),
some plastics such as PBTP, polyurethane hard foam or fi‐
breglass-reinforced polyester.
♦ Depending on the substrate, it may be necessary to apply
glass or paint primer to achieve the best possible adhesion.
♦ Due to the large number of primers, paints and differing plastic
surfaces etc., we recommend conducting an application-spe‐
cific test beforehand.
♦ Careful cleaning of plastic and metal surfaces with a suitable
solvent often results in significantly better adhesion.

Note

♦ Before using, read the safety measures and recommendations


in the safety data sheet.
♦ Even for products which are not required by law to be labelled,
the usual safety measures for chemical products must be ob‐
served.

Application

Note

Areas of the body to be sealed and adhesion surfaces must be


isolated using 2-pack surfacer before the material is applied.

♦ The adhesion surfaces must be dry, free of oil, dust, grease


and any other impurities. Cleanser A, cleanser D and plastic
cleaner - D 195 850 A1- are all suitable for cleaning purposes.
♦ Polyurethane adhesive sealant - AKD 476 KD5 05- is applied
from 310 mm cartridges using a hand cartridge gun or a pneu‐
matic cartridge gun. The 310 ml soft plastic cartridges can be
used with hand-cartridge gun - V.A.G 1628- or with pneumatic
cartridge gun - V.A.G 1761/1- . A pressure of 2 to 5 bar is
required for application with compressed air.
♦ Low sealant temperatures increase its viscosity, which results
in a lower spraying rate. To prevent this, the sealant should be
brought to the correct temperature in an appropriate manner
before beginning application.
♦ If the substrate is too cold, condensation can form if the tem‐
perature is lower than the dew point. This is to be avoided by
warming the substrate beforehand. AG. Volkswagen n AG do

♦ Early overpainting does not prevent curing but does delay it.
Do not wait longer than 3 days before overpainting.
♦ Phospate and epoxy resin primers are especially suitable as
anti-corrosion primers before sealing or coating. It is important
that the primer is dry before anything is applied over it.

depending on appearance, leave as sealant bead or smooth
it with a brush or filling knife (this must be done before a skin
forms, in less than 10 minutes). After a skin has formed, the
material can still be smoothed further with a moist filling knife.
♦ Adhesive sealant may be overpainted with all repair paints.
Overpainting must ensue within 48 hours of the sealant being
applied. Drying the paint with an IR radiant dryer does not hin‐

before setting repair part in place. The repair part must be spot
welded before skin formation begins (< 10 minutes).

– Two spray passes (with intermediate flash-off time) are nec‐


essary to achieve the recommended dry-film thickness of
50-60 µm.

Note

♦ It is not necessary to add the elastic additive - ALZ 011 001- .


♦ The matting additive - ALN 775 106- is not suitable for matting
clear coats.
♦ The matting additive - ALN 775 106- is thixotropic and be‐
comes liquid when stirred well. Shake the can well by hand,
or use a shaker, if possible. The material should also be stirred
in the mixing unit for 15 minutes before use.
♦ Adding the matting additive might influence the coverage.
♦ The actual gloss level achieved is influenced by a number of
factors apart from differences relating to the colour shade. The
following chart shows some additional parameters and their
effects on the degree of gloss.

Higher gloss Low gloss


Slower-drying hardeners Faster-drying hardeners

4.1.5 Stone chip tester - VAS 5102A-


Designation:
♦ Stone chip tester - VAS 5102A-
Product description
The stone chip tester - VAS 5102A- has been developed by VW
AG and allows the user to recognise whether paint damage is the
result of a fault in material or application or whether it has been
caused by excessive mechanical stress, for example stone chip‐
ping or scratching. The test is based on the simulation of average
impact on vehicle paintwork in road traffic of low-mass bodies,
e.g. sand or gravel, travelling at a high velocity.

Note

♦ The testing procedure is described in detail in the catalogue


"Assessment of Vehicle Paintwork".
♦ The unit is subject to an annual inspection by the manufactur‐
er. A charge will be levied for this service.

Items supplied:
