Minimum thickness of the primer coat, whatever the colour: 30 microns in the zones not, or only slightly, exposed to gravel chipping 45 microns in zones exposed to stone chipping (front panel components, roof front part, lower parts of side components) All the exterior surfaces are coated with primer On the interior surfaces, the paint finish is applied directly onto the cataphoresis Paintable or coloured primers are also available from our approved suppliers for repair painting Repairers are advised to use these suppliers to obtain the colours that are specific to the vehicles they are repairing
