Coat Machine Frame with SPEEDLINER Pro – Step by Step
In the guide we explain all the steps to coat your machine frame made of bare steel profiles with SPEEDLINER Pro. From preparation, sanding, priming to coating, we show you everything in detail. Practical tips & tricks help you at every step. Durable protection for your loading area.
Step 1: Scuff surfaces
Floor and walls are roughly cleaned, rust is removed if necessary and sanded with a sander. For fast and effective scuffing we recommend a pneumatic or electric sander with a cup brush.
Important: Only scuff painted surfaces, do not sand down to bare metal.
Step 2: Clean the surfaces
Use the WDC universal cleaner to remove all grease, wax or other residues.
Step 3: PU sealing
Seal all open areas, edges, transitions or gaps with PU sealant.
Step 4: Apply etch primer
All bare metal areas are pre-primed with EP100 etch primer. This is done with a spray gun or a brush.
Let EP100 etch primer dry for at least 20 minutes.
Step 5: Apply primer
Prime all surfaces to be coated with AP101 universal primer. This is done with a spray gun or a brush.
Let AP101 universal primer dry for at least 20 minutes, but not more than 4 hours. After 4 hours it must be reapplied.
Step 6: Prepare the coating material
Further information on the mixing ratio of component A, component B and the liquid color pigment can be found in the SPEEDLINER Pro processing guidelines.
Step 7: Apply the coating material
Start with the edges and corners.
Then all surfaces. Depending on the application we recommend a layer thickness of 1 to 1.5 mm. Greater layer thicknesses are possible at any time.
Step 8: Short drying time (optional)
After successfully spraying the protective coating, a short drying phase follows. After this, the desired texture is applied. The texture influences the appearance.
The coating material is sprayed onto the surface from a greater distance.
What You See Is What You Get! The way the surface looks after applying the texture is how it will look later. The surface structure no longer changes during curing.
Step 9: Curing
Let the protective coating dry for at least 12 hours and protect it from water and moisture.
Done, that’s it! During the curing process, the protection increases continuously and the material bonds permanently with the frame.
