Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to mix and apply clear over base (COB) paint materials to vehicle body components. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, identifying paint faults, preparing surface to be painted, selecting and applying COB two-pack refinishing materials according to manufacturer specifications, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive paint refinishing repair industry.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Prepare to mix and apply COB two-pack refinishing materials to vehicle body components
