EXCLUSIVE
SILVER GRIP® BASECOAT ADDITIVE
The secret to the Spectra Chrome basecoat’s superior adhesion is Spectra Chrome’s exclusive Silver Grip® basecoat additive – a proprietary additive pre-mixed into all Basecoat 812-E that promotes intra-layer adhesion between the basecoat and silver layers. Silver Grip ensures perfect adhesion is always maintained.
No longer is there a specific timeframe or “window” in which the silver and topcoat layers must be applied to ensure perfect adhesion. This unique performance is exclusive to Spectra Chrome chemistry.
Go ahead, basecoat your parts on Friday and finish them on Monday. Accidentally leave your parts in the oven too long? No problem. With Spectra Chrome basecoat, adhesion is always maintained and “adhesion windows” are eliminated.
