FAQs

What surface preparation steps are required before applying AGCO acrylic enamels?

Surfaces must be clean and dry, with dirt, rust, and other foreign matter removed. Loose or cracked paint should be removed, edges feather-sanded (using 400 grit), and then solvent wiped, with specified flash-off time before priming.

How should AGCO acrylic enamel be thinned and when is hardener used?

Reduce with AGCO thinner up to 8:1 for spray application, noting reduction can vary by equipment and conditions. For professional or industrial use, add Renew hardener at a 8:1:1 ratio (paint:hardener:thinner), allow mixture to set, and avoid mixing more than can be used within 8 hours.

What are the key recoating and drying time windows?

Primers may be topcoated within 1½ hours and within 5 days; beyond that, the surface must be re-prepared. For the enamel, recoat within 2 hours or after 48 hours, and drying varies by conditions, including shorter dry-to-touch times when hardener is used.
