3M™ Rocker Panel Coating, 23 ounce, Grey

3M™ Rocker Panel Coating 08889 is a resilient coating designed to protect lower auto body panels from damage such as stone chipping. This coating is applied over primer coated panels and under top coats providing an additional layer of protection to the substrate. 3M™ Rocker Panel Coating 08889 is compatible with common automotive paints. 3M™ Rocker Panel Coating 08889 produces a textured finish which resists chipping, abrasion, rusting and\ weathering. Specifically developed to match OEM medium to coarse textures and produces a resilient under-the-paint coating to protect your vehicle year after year. Ideal for use on rocker panels, under bumpers and under-carriages to prevent exterior corrosion. 3M™ Rocker Panel Coating 08889 is fast drying, paintable, and offers excellent sound deadening properties. DIRECTIONS FOR USE Surface Preparation Prime all bare metal surfaces with urethane or epoxy primer. Sand the primer using grade P320 - P500, clean the surface and mask accordingly. NOTE 1: When repairing into factory applied chip guard coatings prime the sanded factory coating with epoxy primer to prevent “lifting” or “blistering”. NOTE 2: Apply only to surfaces primed with a 2K urethane, 2K epoxy primer, or clean, sanded paint. Acid etch primers should never be in direct contact with the coating. Application And Sanding Use at temperatures above 65°F (19°C), shake until agitator ball moves freely in the can. Apply a light even coat to the surface from a distance of 10 - 12 inches (25 - 30 cm). Allow 5 minutes dry time before applying additional coats. Apply additional coats to match desired texture, allowing adequate dry time between coats to avoid solvent bubbling. Texture can be varied by adjusting application speed, distance, and coating thickness. For best results, invert the can and spray to clear the actuator between coats and after use. Finishing Allow 1 hour dry time when 2 coats are applied (more dry time is needed if additional coats have been applied) prior to painting. Lightly scuff sand using grade P500 - P600 abrasive and apply top coats or primer/sealer (refer to paint manufacturers guidelines for paint application information).
