Cromax is aiming to offer refinishers faster process times while reducing energy consumption with its Ultra Performance Energy System.

Cromax says the programme gives bodyshops the flexibility to match their workload to the right products by finding the balance between speed and energy use, while also ensuring outstanding results. The Ultra Performance Energy System comprises: PS1800 Metal Pretreatment Wipes; Ultra Performance Energy Surfacers PS1081, PS1084 and PS1087; the new Ultra Performance Non-Sanding Surfacers NS2081, NS2084 and NS2087; Cromax Basecoat; and CC6700 Ultra Performance Energy Clear.

Kevin Welling, Training Academy Manager for Axalta, Cromax parent company says, “The new Ultra Performance Non-Sanding Surfacers NS2081 (white), NS2084 (grey) and NS2087 (black), take the Ultra Performance Energy System to the next level.”

Kevin believes the new wet-on-wet Ultra Performance Non-Sanding Surfacers deliver the most productive preparation process available in the market for the overcoating of new parts. He comments, “When using the Ultra Performance Non-Sanding Surfacers in combination with activated Cromax Basecoat and CC6700 Ultra Performance Energy Clear, a vehicle part can be refinished in just 36 minutes, greatly boosting productivity in the bodyshop.”

The surfacers are available in the three shades, white (VS1), grey (VS4) and black (VS7) and are part of the ValueShade concept which delivers the optimal undercoat for every topcoat colour, for faster coverage and reduced basecoat consumption.  The special formulation of the Ultra Performance Non-Sanding Surfacers means they offer high stability on vertical surfaces. They are easy to handle and fast to apply in just one or two coats. A fast flash off means parts can be denibbed to remove dust particles, or overcoated almost immediately with no need to force air dry or dry using IR technology.
