Step 1: Basecoat
The Spectra Chrome Turntable & Rolling Base is placed in the spray booth and the parts pre-mounted on the Dynamic Stands are
basecoated one at a time. Having a turntable allows the painter to position themselves with respect to the rotating part & booth
lighting conditions as to see the "wet edge" when applying the basecoat finish. Having a smooth, slick, shiny basecoated surface
is the key to a perfect job.
| Step 2: Metal Spray
Remember, Do not touch the basecoated parts after they are dry or fingerprints will show in the metal spray. Remove the turntable
from the rollerbase and place it in the spindle of the HV-T basin. After the part is sensitized and rinsed with DI water, a mist of metal
spray must first be applied to the entire surface area before building up the metal deposit to a final shine and a mirror appearance.
Having a turntable allows the applicator to rotate the part in front of the metal spray, which ensures a perfect uniform coating.
| Step 3: Topcoating
After metallizing, the HV-T system is rolled out of the spray booth and the turntable is placed back on the roller base for topcoating.
Remember, do not touch the metallized part or smudges or fingerprints will show in the topcoated finish. The topcoat bonds the basecoat & the
metal spray layers together and provides incredible durability. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet pigments can be added to achieve
a mirror finish of any color. The customizing options are endless!
