The new Plascon Touch Up Paint Repair System offers a complete range of paint products in aerosol cans, from primers to 2K clearcoats. With this new system, professional and cost effective paint repairs can now be carried out on small areas.

The system enables the distributor to fill into an aerosol can, any desired colour in various technologies and in the appropriate quantities. The aerosol filling technology unifies several patented innovations and excellent paint finishes can be achieved, which up to now would only have been made possible with a spray gun.

How the Plascon Touch Up filling process works The filling machine is the heart of the system. Original car colour tones from the Mastermix mixing system are filled using the patented filling device, into a Plascon Touch Up aerosol can that is equipped with a specific propellant and solvent, depending on the paint technology that is required for the repair. The mixed colour that is filled into the aerosol can originates using toners and colourants from the Mastermix mixing system, and the can cap acts as a filling cylinder which indicates the colour that has been filled into the can. Plascon Touch Up 2-Component Technology Plascon Touch Up 2K technology means 2 components, paint and hardener in one spray paint can. The hardener is integrated in a separate compartment in the spray paint can. The hardener is activated or released with a push of a button and mixes with the paint material.
