PUTTIES
The importance of putties in the refinish process is very often underestimated, with expensive consequences for the painter. Actually, putty builds the foundation for the refinish job, which must be solid and absolutely accurate; otherwise, the perfect refinish result is in danger. “Putty mistakes” are always very expensive mistakes since all individual operations have to be made again, from start to finish: sanding, putty, sanding, filler, sanding, base coat, clear coat, polishing…, to repair them. Not to mention that the painter can charge none for this extra-work – he has to bear the costs himself, with negative effects on the profit!
Like no other product, putties are very often the topic of conversation between experts – so incompatible different regional and international tastes seem to be! One prefers a “hard“ putty when spreading, the other likes it “creamy“; one can only accept putty in white, the other claims that only “yellow“ works satisfactory. Putties are “classic”, per se, in the refinish process, animating one or another producer to re-invent this material from time to time…
Many “reinventions” have not met any demand and have been rejected by professionals. For this reason, some end-users take a critical attitude towards new putty types.
Further to the putties however, CAP has remained true again to its chosen path – orientation to the daily job!
The results of our research and development work are products which show significant differences compared to other putty qualities on the market; feedback to our qualities is, in almost all cases, very positive!
Apart from very convenient viscosity, which allows optimum spreading and shaping, in particular “Sanding Plus Technology©” is highly appreciated.
While ordinary putties have to be sanded at first with abrasives of P80 or P100 grit, the sanding job of putties equipped with “Sanding Plus Technology©“ starts with P120 / P150 grit abrasives! Finer abrasive grits causing significantly less severe sanding marks thus the use of a second putty layer or additional fine putty can be avoided! “Sanding Plus Technology©” allows easy sanding jobs even up to 72 hours after the putty is fully cured!
Significantly less work and therefore time saving, just at the beginning of the repair process.
