Betjeningsvejledning
The Ford Genuine Touch-Up Paint pen features a dual-tip applicator for versatile use.
- Choose Applicator: The pen typically includes a fine-point tip for small chips and scratches, and a brush applicator for larger areas. Unscrew the cap to access the desired applicator.
- Påfør tynde lag: Apply the paint in thin, even coats. For the fine-point tip, gently press the tip onto the scratch or chip to release paint. For the brush, apply a thin layer over the damaged area. Avoid applying too much paint at once.
- Tillad tørretid: Allow each coat to dry for approximately 10-15 minutes before applying subsequent coats. Multiple thin coats are preferable to one thick coat for a smoother finish and better adhesion.
- Clear Coat Application (if applicable): If your touch-up paint includes a clear coat, apply it after the color coat has fully dried (typically 30 minutes to 1 hour). Apply the clear coat in thin layers, allowing adequate drying time between coats.
- Hærdningstid: The paint may take several hours to fully cure. Avoid washing the vehicle or exposing the freshly painted area to harsh conditions for at least 24-48 hours.

Fejlfinding
| Problem | Løsning |
|---|---|
| Paint not flowing from tip. | Ensure the pen has been shaken thoroughly. Gently press the tip onto a hard surface to prime it. Check for any dried paint clogging the tip and carefully remove if present. |
| Color does not match vehicle paint. | Verify that the correct paint code (PMPC-19500-7042A) was selected. Color perception can vary under different lighting conditions. Apply thin coats and allow proper drying time. |
| Uneven or lumpy finish. | This often occurs from applying too much paint at once. Ensure paint is applied in very thin, even layers. Allow each layer to dry completely before applying the next. Lightly sand with fine-grit sandpaper (2000-3000 grit) between coats if necessary, then clean the surface. |
| Paint dries too quickly or too slowly. | Environmental factors like temperature and humidity affect drying time. Apply in moderate temperatures (ideally 60-80°F or 15-27°C) and avoid high humidity. |
