DEFINITION OF TERMS

• Basecoat – The foundation paint layer of the basecoat / clearcoat automotive finish. Specifically the layer of densely pigmented paint (color) applied over the primer coat.
• D.A. Polisher/Sander – Dual Action rotates with a double elliptical movement
• Degreasing – The removal from the substrate of contaminants which would otherwise give rise to surface defects and performance failures. e.g. poor adhesion
• Drying – The process of change of a coating from the liquid to the solid state by evaporation of solvent, chemical reaction of the binding medium, or a combination of these processes. When drying takes place during exposure to air at normal temperatures, it is called ‘air-drying’; if it can be accelerated by the application of a moderate degree of heat it is called ‘Force-drying’ (or Low-bake), as distinct from High-bake.
  Alternate Term(s): Binder, Air-drying, Force-drying, Stoving, Lowbake,
  High-bake
• Fish Eye – Complications which occur during repainting when paint is repelled from a spot due to the presence of grease, oil or silicone on the paint surface
• Flash-off Time – Dwell time for solvent to evaporate from the paint surface
• Masking – Temporary covering of areas not to be painted
• Metallic Paint – A type of automotive finish which contains metallic flakes that produce a glittery appearance
  A term used for finishes incorporating fine metallic particles, usually aluminum, in the paint.
• Mica – A naturally occurring mineral, based on silica, which after treatment, is used as an effect pigment in coatings. Their special property is that light falling on a mica particle, depending on the angle of illumination, reflects the light with a change in colour. Because of this they are sometimes referred to as pearls.
  Alternate Term(s): Pearl
• Mottling – Paint color appears streaked, with light and dark areas. Cause, heavier film thickness in some areas that in others. Excessive wetting of some areas when painted. Uneven disbursement of the metallic in the paint.
• Orange Peel – The nubby rough appearance of paint; looks much like the texture of an orange skin, surface lacks clarity or reflected image. Caused by paint applied too dry, resulting in poor flow-out.
• Overspray – Substance such as paint mist that settles out of the air onto automobile surface appearing as tiny specks.
• Paint Film Thickness – Measure of the amount of paint on the vehicle. Also known as film builds, and is measured in millimeters or thousandths of an inch.
• Polishing – Term is often used to describe the action of using a machine to buffer wheel a vehicle.
• Primers – Material applied to the surface to seal, fill scratches and improve adhesion of paint.
• Putty – A plastic material with a high mineral filler content – used for filling deep holes or wide gaps.
• Sanding An abrasive process used to level a coated surface prior to the application of a further coat.
  Alternate Term(s): Flatting
• Sealer/Sealant – A protective product applied by hand or machine to an automotive paint, which coats, seals and protects the surface. Normally contains silicones to maximize durability.
• Skinning – The formation of a thin tough film on the surface of a liquid paints film. Usually due to reaction with the air or to rapid solvent loss.
• Solid Color – A coating, which contains colored pigments only, i.e., does not contain pigments such as aluminum and micas.
• Spray Gun – A typical painter will use a high-pressure spray gun to apply coatings. High-pressure guns are powered by compressed air. The purpose of the gun is to turn the liquid paint into a mist (atomize) and propel the paint toward the surface to be painted. When the wet mist contacts the surface, some of it sticks and some of it bounces off of the surface. Under ideal conditions, only about 30% of the paint sprayed stick or is transferred to the surface using a high pressure spray gun. This is termed transfer efficiency; high-pressure spray guns have a maximum transfer efficiency of 30%. This means that if a gallon of paint can coat 300 square feet, it will only coat 90 square feet if applied with a high pressure spray gun.
• Tack cloth – Cotton fabric, such as cheesecloth, lightly impregnated with a resin, used to remove dust from a surface after rubbing down and prior to further painting. Tack rags should be stored in an airtight container to conserve their tackiness.
• Thinner – A blend of volatile organic solvents added to the paint to reduce it to the correct viscosity for application
• Three-Stage Color – A topcoat colour, which consists of 3, parts, a basecoat, a midcoat and a clear.
  Alternate Term(s): Tri-coat
• VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) – Acronym for Vehicle Identification Number. This is a unique number that identifies your vehicle. Although its primary purpose is to identify your vehicle, it often contains important information concerning the equipment and options that were installed on your vehicle at the factory. This information allows the Repair Center to order the correct parts for your vehicle. Any professional estimate or Repair Order will have this number on it
• Wet Sanding – A procedure of simultaneously sanding and rinsing an automotive finish to remove imperfections. Regarded as complicated and should only be attempted by professionals.
