• The Body Gard stone chip resistant coatings from 311 Automotive Trades have been reformulated to allow a wider spray pattern from the aerosol dispenser. This means that a larger area is covered by a thinner coat, so that the operator will not "load-on" the product too quickly.
These thinner coats ensure solvent evaporation and overcome the potentially serious problem of entrapment and subsequent solvent boil when used in a low-bake situation, says 3M.
Body Gard is available in grey and black and both flat and textured finishes can be achieved. Quck drying, the rubber-based coating is designed for application to sills and valances and, in addition to the 474m1 aerosol, a compatable coating is available in onelitre cans for application with a normal Schutz gun.
