AkzoNobel Car Refinishes is once again pushing the envelope in high performance clearcoats with the introduction of Sikkens Autoclear LV Exclusive. With scratch resistant clearcoats gaining in popularity with O.E.M manufacturers, it is important that AkzoNobel Car Refinishes is able to deliver a VOC compliant after market scratch resistant clearcoat to match the performance of the OEM factory coatings.
Sikkens Autoclear LV Exclusive over Sikkens Autowave fits the bill perfectly: a high gloss clearcoat that is not only highly resistant to abrasion and easy to apply, but also features self-healing properties when exposed to heat.
“Scratch resistance is getting to be more and more important in the marketplace,” says Ed Hilborne Marketing Manager Akzo Nobel Car Refinishes. “Our customers needed a high quality solution for the repair of vehicles coated with scratch resistance O.E clearcoats. Sikkens Autoclear LV Exclusive fully meets our customers’ requirements and we’re very excited about its introduction.”
Sikkens Autoclear LV Exclusive is suitable for every type of repair from spot repairs to full resprays. It has an excellent high-gloss appearance and outstanding gloss retention – including superior resistance to damage and loss of gloss in modern car washes – and is highly resistant to scratches in normal driving conditions. What especially distinguishes Sikkens Autoclear LV Exclusive is its extraordinary “re-flow” properties: if the surface does get scratched, the paint virtually heals itself when exposed to sunlight or heat.
