improper panel gaps will cause misalignment issues, and can cause:
a term used to describe the process of removing all the finish from a damaged area
complete finish removal
using this will help with tinting colors
color plotting charts
The piece of the welder that is clamped to the base material
work clamp.
A term used to describe the painting operation
refinishing
This keeps a door from opening up all the way and damaging the hinges or adjacent panels
check strap
One purpose for using sandpaper is to refinish materials to adhere to the substrate; what is another reason?
leveling the surface, make smooth
What is needed to see color?
Light, if you say eyes minus points.
Doing this will cause a perfect weld bead
proper weld technique
a term used to describe any operation that involves removing, repairing, or installing parts
labor
an area on which corrosion starts to form
corrosion hot spot
Clearcoat provides abrasion resistance and glosses the basecoat; what is another reason to use clearcoat?
UV protection
green or red depending on the apple color
voltage and amperage
a measurement tool used to determine the distance between panel gaps
panel gap gauge
can be done while blending but should not be done while refinishing
fanning of spray gun
What is one way to know if a vehicle has been previously refinished?
different color panels, paint masking hardlines, overspray
metallics
doing this with the work clamp will cause the welder to not create the arc
These provide refinish, labor, part numbers, and part prices for a handwritten estimate
estimating guides
part of a door that allows it to swing open
hinge
Part of the refinishing process that removed contaminants from a substrate to be refinished
chemical cleaner
value, hue, chroma
Although heat and wire speed are correctly set, what weld technique will cause the weld bead to lay on the surface and look fine but not fuse with the base metal.
stick out too high, resistance too high
determine the total refinish time if you are painting a front door that has a single refinish operation time of 2.0 hours
2.8 hours
2.0 for basecoat x %40 clearcoat time
