Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit

Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit: The Ultimate Two-Component VHS Solution for Automotive Professionals In the fast-paced world of automotive refinishing, the balance between speed and quality is the ultimate goal for any busy bodyshop. The Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit is a professional-grade, two-component Very High Solid (VHS) lacquer designed specifically to meet the rigorous demands of the modern repair sector . Engineered by NOVOL under the Spectral brand, this clearcoat provides a premium, high-gloss finish that ensures every vehicle leaves the booth with a factory-standard appearance . Unmatched Efficiency and Throughput The primary advantage of the Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit lies in its ability to significantly increase shop throughput without sacrificing the integrity of the final finish . In a high-volume environment, time is quite literally money. This VHS clearcoat offers an incredibly short time to polish, reaching operational hardness in just 15 minutes when baked at 60°C or 30 minutes at 50°C . Despite these rapid curing properties, the formulation maintains a long open time . This is a critical feature for painters, as it allows for the seamless application over large surface areas—even a full vehicle respray—without the risk of dry spray or poor edge merging . Whether you are performing a small spot repair or a complete colour change, the Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit adapts to the scale of the job . Superior Material Properties Efficiency isn't just about speed; it is also about material economy. The Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit features a solid particle content exceeding 60%, placing it firmly in the VHS (Very High Solid) category . This high concentration of resins means that painters can achieve a deep, durable film build with fewer passes . Exceptional Levelling: The product is formulated for perfect levelling, reducing the amount of post-paint nibbing and polishing required . High Final Hardness: The lacquer achieves exceptional final hardness whether cured at room temperature over several days or accelerated via a low-bake cycle . Coverage: It offers a theoretical coverage of 10.6   m 2 / l at a 50   μ m thickness, ensuring excellent value per litre . Technical Versatility and Application The Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit is designed to be a "smart" system that responds to the specific environment of your workshop . It is compatible with the Spectral H 6115 hardener range, which includes Fast, Standard, Slow, and Extra Slow variants . This allows the technician to fine-tune the drying curve based on ambient temperatures: Fast/Standard: Ideal for cooler conditions or smaller repairs ( 15 − 2 5 ∘ C ) . Slow/Extra Slow: Perfect for high-temperature booths or large-scale projects ( 25 − + 3 5 ∘ C ) . For specialised tasks, the kit can be further enhanced . By adding Spectral PLAST 775, you can increase the coating’s elasticity for use on flexible plastic bumpers or improve stone-chip resistance on leading edges like bonnets and front aprons . For blending, the Spectral EXTRA 895 fade-out thinner ensures an invisible transition between the new lacquer and the existing paintwork . Standardised Mixing and Compliance Accuracy is vital for consistent results . The Spectral 565 Clearcoat Kit utilises a simple 2:1 mixing ratio by volume . It is a compliant product with an actual VOC content of 415 g/l, meeting the strict requirements of EU Directive 2004/42/CE . With a pot life of 30 minutes at 20°C and a recommended application of just 1.5 layers, this kit minimises downtime and maximises profit for the professional refinisher . TDS
