Aluminium car panels need correct cleaning and adhesion priming before the colour system is applied. The primer choice matters because aluminium is less forgiving than stable painted steel when coating adhesion is weak.
Mipa silicone remover in liquid format and Mipa silicone remover spray remove wax, grease and silicone before sanding or coating. Clean again after sanding so dust and fingerprints do not sit under the new finish.
Mipa Active Primer 2K Wash Primer with Hardener WPZ gives a chromate free adhesion base for aluminium and other non ferrous metal work. It prepares the panel for the following filler or coating layers.
Mipa Etch Primer Spray gives a spray can adhesion method for smaller aluminium or bare metal areas. It is useful when the work area is local and controlled.
Mipa EP Primer Surfacer with the matching EP hardener and EP thinner gives direct adhesion and corrosion protection on prepared steel, aluminium or zinc. It is the stronger primer method for bare or sensitive metal.
Mipa 2K Acrylic Primer Filler and Mipa Fast Filler Spray build a sandable base over repaired or keyed areas. They help level small scratches and sanding marks before the colour layer.
Mipa BC Ready Mixed Two Layer Basecoat creates the matched colour layer on the prepared panel, while Mipa BC Thinner VDG supports the spray viscosity required by the BC system.
Mipa 2K HS Clearcoat CC 8, Mipa 2K HS Hardener HS 25 normal and Mipa 2K Thinner Normal V 25 form the gloss and protection layer after the basecoat has flashed.
MP ColourCheck Spray helps assess the colour and finish before the final clearcoat decision. Mipa Control Spray helps reveal sanding marks and low spots while the surface is still easy to correct.
The MP sanding block keeps hand pressure even across the repair area, panel edge and primer surface. A flat block helps avoid waves that become more visible after gloss clearcoat.
Remove wax, grease, dust and loose contamination from the aluminium panel. Check whether the existing coating is sound enough to sand, or whether deeper repair work is needed first.
Key the surface evenly and remove sanding dust before coating. Use guide or colour checking where it helps reveal scratches, low spots or uneven preparation.
Apply the suitable primer or primer filler for the exposed substrate and repair depth, then sand the dried primer until the surface is smooth enough for colour.
Apply the matched colour in controlled coats over the prepared base. Keep the repair edge soft so the new colour can visually blend with the surrounding finish.
Apply the compatible clearcoat system after the colour layer has flashed. Let the coating cure before polishing or putting the panel back into normal use.
Use Mipa Active Primer 2K Wash Primer with Hardener WPZ when the aluminium panel needs a dedicated adhesion primer before the filler or colour build.
Use Mipa Etch Primer Spray for smaller aluminium areas where a controlled spray can adhesion primer is the practical option.
Use EP Primer Surfacer where the job needs epoxy primer protection and the selected system method allows it.
Keep aluminium freshly sanded and clean before primer. Fingerprints and oxide film can reduce adhesion faster than many painters expect.
