F018

Gloss Converter

The Gloss Converter F-018 is a specially formulated additive designed to enhance the performance of GREEN-LINE basecoat. When applied, it significantly improves the resistance of the basecoat to operating fluids such as those found in the engine compartment, thereby ensuring superior durability and longevity. Additionally, F-018 is formulated to create a scratch-resistant satin finish that does not require the application of any clearcoat, resulting in a streamlined and efficient application process.
