PIN HOLING

Description

Small deep holes in the paint surface: observing accurately one can see the paint layer in which the hole originated (sealer or putty).

Cause

Penetration of the final coat from holes due to air trapped in the application.
- Incorrect application of the filler (sanding, sealing, etc.)
- Too fast drying (oven or IR lamps) of the filler applied in too thick layers.
- Inefficient filling technique and putty sanding (leaving hollows)

Solution

After the complete drying through of the film:
- Sand the paint or filler completely to remove the pinholes; apply a suitable sealer filler, sand accurately and re-apply the final coat.

Prevention

- Follow the prescriptions of the data sheet, respect the thickness of the layer and allow the correct flash off and drying times.
- Apply the putty in subsequent thin layers to avoid trapping air in the mass.
- Always check the substrate before applying the top coat and, if necessary, operate as indicated above.
