This is the basic paint process:
plastics are baked raw for 1hr at 170* F to release any chemicals from the manufacturing process, think of it as a sauna for those pieces. then it is scuffed with a soft pad if needed, and sprayed with an adhesion promoter. next is the sealer to prevent anymore release of "toxins" that might later release pressure and cause "fish-eyes" in your paint. then you spray 2-3 layers of base. (allow for 15min flash in between coats) then 2-3 layers of clear (allow for 15min flash in between coats) bake wet sand where needed and polish When the liquids are sprayed from your paint gun the particles become atomized then lay on the surface, it looks like a solid layer but in reality there are micro pores. Your clay bar will get into those pores and remove any dirt or "toxins" that might enter those pores from daily driving. If you do not clay your paint on a regular basis (at least every 6 months) you are basically layering wax over that stuff and locking it in your paint. Just keep in mind when you clay you need to be gentle and very patient working in side to side movements in a 1'x'1 area making sure to follow the instructions of the manufacture. Hopefully you have a better understanding of the importance of clay bar for your Yari car! |
