Application

COBRA Truck Bedliner can produce various textures depending on the nozzle size and thinning proportions:

• Coarse texture: adjustable by spraying pressure and the nozzle-to-surface distance; requires a UBS spray gun;
• Medium texture: adjustable by adding thinner 0-5% and spraying with a con-ventional gun and a Ø 2,5 mm nozzle.
• Fine texture (perfectly imitating plastic): when adding 25-30% thinner and applied with a conventional gun, nozzle diameter 1.4-1.8 mm.

The product can also be applied with brushes and rollers. Recommendations for substrate preparation:

• Remove all details not to be coated.
• Degrease with a silicone remover.
• Sand down with a sand grain suitable for the substrate (from P120 to P180).
• Blow the substrate clean of all loose particles.
• Degrease with a silicone remover.
• Mask all surfaces not to be coated (including tapped holes and fixed details) with painter's tape and paper/plastic sheets.
• Apply an anti-corrosive protection layer (an etching primer 2K or an epoxy primer 2K - sand down with a sand grain from P240 to P320); do not apply the protective coating on bare metal.
• For plastics and poorly matted substrates: use an adhesion promoting agent.
• If the product action on the substrate is uncertain, perform a thinner test: if the coating begins to dissolve after wiping with a cloth soaked in the thinner (1K), remove the coating.
• With the anti-corrosive coatings cured and properly prepared (by matting, blowing off dust and degreasing according to the specifications), apply the COBRA coating according to its Technical Data Sheet.

Use:

COBRA can be applied whenever you need a durable and lasting textured protective coating witch high mechanical strength and scratch resistance. The sound-proofing and sound-dampening performance comes with the anti-slip effect of the coating texture.
