Water-based, acrylic – aliphatic polyurethane clear. Dries to a consistent finish with excellent mar resistance. Use as top-coat over any Createx paint for indoor & outdoor paintjobs and as adhesive primer direct to metal, plastic, wood and more..   UVLS Clears Have 3 Functions

•Top-coat clear for exterior & interior applications such as sign, costuming, modeling and more.

• Perfect top-coat to any Createx paint for applications other than automotive.

• Excellent flexibility for cosplay & costuming.

• Allow 48-hours air drying before direct contact with water and 5-days minimum air drying before water submersion.

• Excellent mar resistance. UVLS Clears withstand direct contact without showing abrasion.

• Works excellent as inter-coat clear to tape and mask over. Scuffing not required up to 48-hours after application.

After 48-hours, dry sand with 600 - 800 grit.Pin-hole free coverage is achieved with 3 medium coats.

Apply coats medium, wetted so they look glossy during application but not so much material that the coat “milks up”, that is appears cloudy due to excess build.

• Each coat should be ~ 0.5 - 0.75 mil. wet.

• Apply with a 50/50 overlapping pattern.

• If coat appears cloudy, allow extended drying time.

• Avoid over-atomizing; clears are best applied at lower psi settings for best adhesion and highest gloss-level of 4050 Gloss. Dry-sprayed coats will lose gloss and adhesion.Scuffing underlying paint is not required.

• When applying 4050 Gloss Clear as an adhesive primer, dry sand substrate 400 – 800 grit.

• Clean sanded substrate with a solvent-based degreaser, not a water-based cleaner, prior to applying 4050 Gloss Clear.

Drying Times & Curing

Estimated drying and curing times are set at 70⁰F (21⁰C) and 50% or less relative humidity (RH). Allow for extended drying times when painting in colder temperatures or more humid conditions. Painting in temperature below 60⁰F (15⁰C) not recommended.

Re-coat times are approximately 10 – 15 minutes.

• Allow clears to dry matte (non-wetted).

• There are no time windows, if in doubt, allow for extended drying time. Time to tape is 45 – 60 minutes after application.

• When applying direct to difficult substrates, allow for extended drying times, up to 48-hours for

substrates such as polished stainless steel that is not sanded for paint preparation.

• Scuffing clear is not required when taping UVLS Clears ~ 48-hours after application. After 48-hours,

UVLS Clears cure hard and tape will lay down best when Clear is dry sanded 600 – 800 grit.

Do not use heat to assist to force dry as this may result in loss of adhesion. Use warm air to assist drying times.

Allow 6-hour minimum air drying before sanding & polishing. Full cure is in excess of 48-hours after

application.

Allow 5 days minimum drying before water submersion.

Use as a Primer – 4050 Gloss Clear is an excellent adhesive primer for direct application to any substrate other than silicone.

• Direct-to-Metal primer with excellent adhesion to any metal including brass and steel without risk of corrosion.

For best adhesion onto polished, non-sanded metals, allow 48-hours air drying.

• Direct to most plastics including 3D print composite material, polycarbonate, styrene and more.

• Excellent wood primer. Protects without raising wood grain. Prevents underlying oil and tannin bleed-through.

Use as a candy2o carrier

• 4050 Gloss Clear is the best medium to mix with concentrated candy2o colors.

• 4050 Gloss is better than mixing candy2o with 4030 Balancing Clear as a more durable and uniform

candy color is created that dries quicker.

• Mix 4050 Gloss 6:1 candy2o, then, optional, thin with 4011 Reducer 5% - 10% per volume.

Mixing & Thinning UVLS Clears

UVLS Clears are thinned with 4011 Reducer 5% - 10%per volume.

• Allow reduced UVLS Clear 10+ minutes to acclimate before spraying. The added reducer breaks down surface tension in the clear for improved flow & leveling.

• Distilled or deionized water may be used 5% - 10% per volume to thin clears, do not exceed as drying times and adhesion will be affected.

Application

UVLS Clears may be applied by spray-gun, airbrush, or traditional brush.

• Spray-Gun: 1.3mm – 1.4mm

• Mini-Gun: 1.0mm – 1.2mm

Follow gun manufacturer’s psi recommendations.

• Airbrush: 0.5m ~ 20 – 25 psi

Storage

UVLS Clears do not have a pot-life after mixing with reducer. However, as 4011 Reducers promote drying and curing, only reduce clear intended for application within a 12-hour period for best spray consistency, flow and leveling.

Keep clears capped air-tight when not pouring from the bottle. Store away from direct light in a cool, dark environment such as a paint cabinet or box in a closet.

Compatibility

UVLS Clears are compatible as a clear or primer with any Createx paint.

• Compatible as a top-coat or primer for other paint types, both water-based and solvent-based.

• Always allow paint to dry thoroughly before top-coatingwith UVLS Clear.

Cleaning from Airbrush or Spray-Gun UVLS Clears are best rinsed from the airbrush or spray-gun

with 5618 Airbrush Cleaner or 4011 Reducer. Use 4008 Restorer as a rinse for final clean to remove dried paint.

Cleaning UVLS Clears after Curing

UVLS Clears should only be cleaned thoroughly dried. Use a solvent-based degreaser or odorless mineral spirits to clean.

Often, a dry, tack-free wipe is adequate to clean UVLS Clears.

Health & Safety

Use in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with eyes. Washhands thoroughly with soap and warm water after use.

Donot ingest. When spraying or sanding, use a properly fitting NIOSH / MSHA approved respirator.

Eye contact: Rinse with clean water for 15 minutes. Seek

medical attention.

Inhalation: Use in in well ventilated areas and wear a NIOSH /

MSHA approved respirator.
