Coating a Hilux with SPEEDLINER PRO – step by step
All steps for hood and fender: preparation, scuff sanding, priming and coating. Practical tips help at every stage. Durable protection.
Step 1: Mask & disassemble
Remove add-on parts where possible.
Protect vehicle areas with masking paper/film. Steel-wire tape recommended as master tape.
Step 2: Scuff sand surfaces
Clean, remove rust if needed, and scuff sand.
Recommendation: air or electric sander with cup brush.
Important: scuff only, do not sand to bare metal.
Step 3: Clean the surfaces
WDC universal cleaner removes grease, wax and residues.
Step 4: Apply primer
Prime all areas to be coated with AP101 universal primer (spray gun or brush).
Let AP101 dry at least 20 minutes, max 4 hours — otherwise reapply.
Step 5: Prepare coating material
Mix ratios (A/B, pigment) as per processing guidelines.
Step 6: Apply coating
Material amount per m² and spray sequence are defined to ensure maximum protection.
Highest exposure at the front — choose a higher film thickness if needed.
Step 7: Short drying time
After a short dry, apply the desired texture.
Step 8: Apply texture
Texture affects slip resistance and appearance.
Spray from a greater distance to create the structure. What You See Is What You Get — the texture will not change while curing.
Step 9: Remove master masking tape
After a short wait, carefully remove the master masking tape.
Hard-to-reach areas: wait ~2 hours. Steel wire tape can cut for up to 12 hours.
Step 10: Demasking
Let the coating dry at least 12 hours and protect from moisture.
Remove masking, clean up, reinstall add-on parts.
Step 11: Curing
Finished!
Protection increases as it cures and bonds permanently to the vehicle.
