FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
I run a busy body shop – is Xpress 405 really that fast in real-world use?
Yes. In everyday workshop conditions, Xpress 405 consistently cures in around 5 minutes at 50°C, allowing vehicles to leave the spray booth much faster than with conventional clear coats. Many body shops use it specifically to increase daily job turnover.
Does the fast curing affect the final finish or durability?
No. Despite the rapid curing time, the clear coat delivers a deep, high-gloss finish with excellent durability. Once fully cured, it offers strong resistance to swirl marks, washing scratches, and everyday wear.
Is it easy to apply for painters who are not ProXL specialists?
Yes. Painters often mention that Xpress 405 is very forgiving and easy to work with. It has excellent flow and levelling properties, making it suitable for experienced professionals as well as workshops new to ProXL products.Can I use this clear coat for both full resprays and small repairs?Absolutely. Xpress 405 is widely used for full vehicle resprays, panel repairs, and spot repairs. Its extended open time allows comfortable application even on larger panels.
Does it really help reduce energy costs?
Yes. Because the clear coat cures quickly at relatively low temperatures, spray booth bake times are reduced. This leads to lower electricity or gas usage, which can make a noticeable difference in monthly operating costs.
How does it compare to standard HS clear coats?
Compared to traditional HS clear coats, Xpress 405 offers significantly faster curing, similar or better gloss levels, and improved productivity. Many workshops switch to it to reduce downtime without sacrificing finish quality.
