Applying touch-up paint to a damaged surface
If the damage has not reached all the way down to the metal, then touch-up paint can beapplied immediately after the surface has beencleaned.
1. Place a strip of masking tape over thedamaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to it. If the damage goes down to the bare metal, you may need to use primer first. Ifthe paint damage is on a plastic surface,an adhesive primer should be used for bet-ter results. Spray the primer into the lid ofthe spray can and brush on thinly. 2. Light sanding with a very fine-grained
sandpaper or similar may be requiredbefore painting (e.g. if there are unevenedges). Clean the area carefully and let itdry.
3. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush, toothpick or similar.When the primer is dry, apply one or morecoats of paint and then a clear coat, lettingthe paint dry between each application.
If there is a longer scratch, follow the sameprocedure as above, but first mask off the sur-rounding area to protect the undamaged paint. Touch-up pens/sticks and spray paint are available at Volvo retailers.
NOTE
If the stone chip has not gone down to the bare metal and an undamaged coat ofpaint remains, apply base coat and clearcoat immediately after cleaning the sur-face.
