501-36-15 Paint - General Information 501-36-15 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION In all the cases of paint damage described below, if the damage is irreversible a new paint finish must be applied. Paint damage cause by bee droppings Bee droppings can be recognized on a paint surface through its yellow or brown color and sausage or drop-like shape with a diameter of 3-4 mm. Cause/damage pattern: ‡ In combination with heat and high air humidity, bee droppings leave discolorations and cause paint decomposition. ‡ The paint can be destroyed down to the filler. TO BE UPDATED LATER Repair of damage: ‡ If the damage is light, perform a polishing repair. Paint damage caused by bird droppings Bird dropping damage appears most often as matt, etched topcoat areas of various sizes. If left on the vehicle for a long time, crack formation and etching down to the filler will occur. Cause/damage pattern: ‡ Bird droppings are particularly harmful in combination with heat and moisture. The urea (white part) has a very high salt content and is very aggressive. ‡ The intensity of the damage varies depending on the type, quantity, contact time and extent. ‡ Cracks, etching, marks up to dissolution of the top coat are the results. TO BE UPDATED LATER Repair of damage: ‡ If the damage is light, perform a polishing repair. Paint damage caused by insects At insect impact locations on the hood, roof and bumper, small etched or etched through paint marks with partially visible spots of filler. Cause/damage pattern: ‡ The top coat layer is destroyed in a short time by surface swelling and etching. ‡ Colliding insects stick to the paint surface. In combination with moisture and heat, because of the resulting acids the insect bodies sink into the paint top coat. ‡ The corrosion is G, C, U or O shaped and is only a few millimeters thick. TO BE UPDATED LATER Repair of damage: ‡ Wash the vehicle, treat the affected area with insect remover. Clean the paint surface several times. ‡ Protect with hard wax.
