HOUSE OF KOLOR ®
TECHNICAL DATA INFORMATION
IMPORTANT NOTE: This document includes information on UC01 and UFC01.
These products are for sale outside the United States only.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE YOU BEGIN.
Our products are for use by trained professional personnel using proper production
automotive spray equipment suitable for the paint to be sprayed. Proper spray booth,
air system, respirator and basic spray painting ability are required.
We do not recommend painting in temperatures below 70°F.
Although House of Kolor ® is designed with high film build in mind, we do not
recommend any finish that exceeds 15 mils in thickness. This would include the
sanded OEM finish and the Kustom Paint finish.
NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC.
For controlled results, House of Kolor ® recommends products be used as a "total
system." We do not recommend the intermixing of various manufacturer's' products.
This is only asking for trouble. No professional or amateur should run the risk of a job
failure. Custom painting is complicated enough without gambling on untested product
compatibility.
Apply only over House of Kolor ® primers/sealers and/or properly prepared OEM paint.
Do not apply House of Kolor ® products over alkyd or synthetic enamels, uncatalyzed
acrylic enamel, primers, sealers or topcoats that may not be coated with lacquer. You
must control every step of the preparation including the products used for a successful
paint job. Any unknowns such as existing primer, old paint, etc. can become the weak
link in the custom painter's chain.

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Unless Valspar agrees otherwise in writing, Valspar’s
only obligation for any defect in this product under any warranty that Valspar provides
or under any other legal theory will be to replace the defective product, or to refund its
purchase price, at Valspar’s option.

IMPORTANT VOC INFORMATION
The National Rule and SCAQMD Rule 1151 both make distinctions between base
coat and mid coat application. The VOC calculations are different depending on which
application procedure is chosen. It is important to know whether the system you are
using is classified as base coat/clear coat or as a mid coat/multistage system.
All Shimrin ® Base coats may be applied as either a base coat or mid coat. Shimrin ®
Base coats include the following codes: BC, FBC, NE, PBC, PC, SG, MB, KBC, and KF.
Kosmic Kolor ® Urethane Kandys and Solid Color Base coats may also be applied as a
base coat or mid coat. Their codes are: UK, UB, and UFB.
BASE COAT APPLICATION
Applying the above products directly over the sealer, Ko-Seal ® II (KS10, KS11,
KS12, KS210, KS211, KS212) will classify the products as basecoats. The VOC
limit for base coat/clear coat application would apply. Refer to Ko-Seal ® II Sealer
Recommendation Chart to choose the right sealer color for your application.
Example: KD2000 DTM Primer, KS10 Sealer, Shimrin ® Base coat, Clear coat
base coat / clear coat
MID COAT APPLICATION
Applying any Shimrin ® or Kosmic Kolor ® coat over BC25, BC26, OR ANY Shimrin ®
Base coat will classify those products as a mid coat. This would apply whether or not
a sealer was used. The VOC limit for mid coat/multistage application would apply.
Example: KD2000 DTM Primer, KS10 Sealer, BC26, Shimrin ® Base coat, Clear coat
base coat / mid coat / clear coat
