Specifications
BASECOAT PAINT MIXING RATIOS
Thoroughly mix four parts Low-VOC Urethane Basecoat with one part Low-VOC Urethane Activator.
Use Fast (50308ZP) for small jobs, or temps below 75°F; Medium (50309ZP) for small
jobs, or temps between 70-85°F; or Slow (50310ZP) for large jobs, or temps above 80°F.
Keep in mind, other factors, such as humidity, air flow and total film thickness should also be
considered. In many situations, it will be useful to add 10%-20% 50104ZP Zero-VOC Reducer
to aid sprayabliity, flow and leveling. Remember, this is an activated basecoat system; only
mix as much as is needed. Pot life is about 2 hours at 70°F.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Apply Low-VOC Urethane Basecoat color in two full medium wet coats with a consistent
50% overlap pattern. Allow five to ten minutes flash time between coats. Flash time
should increase if additional coats are applied. Most colors will cover in two coats. A third
and final coat may be applied to set even metallic pattern. If required, apply this light
coat immediately after the previous full wet coat, moving the gun with faster passes, from
further away. Mist basecoat onto the wet film until the metallic pattern is uniform.
Basecoat should dry dust-free within 10-20 minutes. May be lightly sanded in as few as
20 minutes. Wait at least 30 minutes before wet sanding. Wait 45-90 minutes before
taping on the fresh film. All dry times are approximate, at 70°. Temperature, air flow,
total film thickness and other variable may extend these times.
Safety
Always wear eye, skin and respiratory protection. Always paint in a well ventilated area. Consult MSDS and Tech Data sheets for proper safety precautions and usage. VOC= 3.5 lbs.gallon
