I-CAR · June 12, 2019
Summary
This article highlights the efficiency and material-saving benefits of using ultraviolet (UV) curing primer surfacers in the refinishing process. It explains how UV primers cure in as little as 30 seconds under the correct wavelength of UV light, transforming the priming and prep steps into a continuous, single-touch operation.
What to do on the job
Ensure the correct wavelength UV light equipment is used for curing and that technicians wear appropriate personal protective equipment for ultraviolet radiation.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the implementation of UV curing primers to improve cycle times and reduce material waste. It can support estimates or supplements where rapid-cure technology is utilized to streamline the vehicle prep and refinish process.
