Bleed Checker

4040 Auto Air Colors Bleed Checker

4040 Bleed Checker is a hybridized, urethane-acrylic clear, used as an inter-coat, intended for application over Candy₂O to prevent the Candy₂O dyes from bleeding (bleed-back) into top-coated colors.

• Apply straight fro the bottle (un-reduced) over Candy₂O as an inter-coat.
• Thoroughly dry (30-60 minutes), before layering other colors on top, including subsequent Candy₂O colors may be applied direct without scuffing.
• 4040 will prevent the underlying Candy₂O dye from leaching or "bleeding" into the top-coated colors.

Do not reduce with 4012 Reducer as it's a solvent used with Candy₂O and use of it in 4040 will create a shared material between Candy₂O and 4040 which may allow for bleeding.
