4 GTPO123/QTPO123 DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Carefully read all cautions on the MSDS before use. Protect hands with solvent-resistant gloves and eyes with chemical splash goggles. If the work area is not well ventilated you must use a properly fitted and maintained NIOSH approved respirator for organic solvent vapors. A dust mask does not provide protection against vapors. 1. Shake well and filter before each use to secure uniform mixture. 2. Clean all areas to be painted with Bulldog Abrasive Cleaner. Rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry. Be sure not to apply any solvent cleaners after this point. 3. Blow and tack surface. 4. Using a spray gun, apply one even, medium-wet coat. NOTE: If two coats are needed, apply an even, light mist coat. Wait 3-5 minutes, and apply a second coat. 5. Wait 5 to 10 minutes before applying the next coating. Drying Times Between Coats: Dry to Next Coating: Tinting: Flex Agent: 3-5 minutes 5-10 minutes Mix 90% Bulldog with 10% basecoat for visible color coverage. Ratio 1:4 Bulldog with basecoat Ratio 1:3 Bulldog with clearcoat Note: Bulldog is effective up to 24 hours. If the sprayed part is left overnight, the basecoat can be applied with no issue. If the part is left longer than 24 hours it needs to be scuffed and tacked again. Apply 1 light coat of Bulldog before applying basecoat. Equipment Cleaning: All tools and spills should be cleaned immediately with lacquer thinner. Care should be taken to keep lacquer thinner away from freshly finished surfaces. Clean spray gun according to manufacturer s instructions. 2

6 ETPO123B DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Carefully read all cautions on the MSDS before use. Protect hands with solvent-resistant gloves and eyes with chemical splash goggles. If the work area is not well ventilated you must use a properly fitted and maintained NIOSH approved respirator for organic solvent vapors. A dust mask does not provide protection against vapors. General Repair 1. Clean all areas to be painted with Bulldog Abrasive Cleaner. Rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry. Be sure not to apply any solvent cleaners after this point. 2. Blow and tack surface. 3. Shake gently for one minute to ensure a uniform mixture. 4. Hold can in an upright position, with arrow on button pointing away from you, approximately 12 inches from the surface. 5. Spray the surface with an even, light mist coat. Wait 3 to 5 minutes and apply a second light coat, if needed. 6. Wait 5 to 10 minutes before applying the next coating. Spot & Panel Repair: Bulldog can be used before epoxy, urethane or polyester fillers to promote adhesion to polypropylene and TPO bumpers. Apply primers to all metal and filler areas. Sand all areas to be painted with 320 grit or finer. Apply 2 medium coats Bulldog, allowing 3-5 minutes flash between coats. Allow 5 to 10 minutes dry time before applying basecoat. Drying Times: Between Coats: 3-5 minutes Dry to Next Coating: 5-10 minutes Note: Bulldog is effective up to 24 hours. If the sprayed part is left overnight, the basecoat can be applied with no issue. If the part is left longer than 24 hours it needs to be scuffed and tacked again. Apply 1 light coat of Bulldog before applying basecoat.

8 Additional Tips for Using Bulldog Adhesion Promoter 1. Use Bulldog as a mid-coat adhesion promoter, effectively tying multiple layers of paint together. Great for use when doing special paint effects, such as flames, two-tone paint jobs, etc. Bulldog will also improve the flop/alignment of metallic pigments in blend-out areas. 2. When using Bulldog as an added flex agent in a clear, be sure to add the Bulldog after the clear has been catalyzed. (Ratio 1:3 Bulldog to mixed clear) 3. Bulldog can be added to primer in a ratio of up to 1:3. 4. Bulldog cannot be mixed with waterborne paint. However, Bulldog can be used in a waterborne system, as long as it is applied underneath the primer. Always follow paint manufacturer s instructions regarding application of waterborne paint systems. 5. Treat bare metal to prevent corrosion. Bare metal and body filler must be primed and dry or wet sanded with 320 grit sandpaper prior to applying Bulldog. 6. Metal primer overspray onto plastic surfaces should be removed, as it can cause paint failure. Bulldog overspray onto plastic is not an issue. 7. Bulldog can be used on interior parts, such as dashboards, kick panels, visors, etc., prior to dyeing or painting. Solvent-based dyes can be mixed with Bulldog (up to 50%) before application. 8. When applying Bulldog over fresh lacquer or uncured acrylics, or applying lacquers over Bulldog, allow extra dry time between light coats. 9. Bulldog should not be used on Lexan or polystyrene surfaces. 10. Bulldog is not compatible with enamel paints. 11. Abrading of the substrate is essential for successful coating application. We recommend the use of Bulldog Abrasive Cleaner on plastics, but even gentle scuffing with a red or grey scuff pad will greatly increase the bite of the coating. Bare metals, OEM painted surfaces, and previous repair coats should all be abraded prior to repainting. 6

9 PABC124 DIRECTIONS FOR USE: 1. Shake well. 2. Apply a 3/8 bead along face of part. Work the cleaner into the surface with a damp green or gray scuff pad. 3. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Once dry, do not wipe the surface with any type of solvent. 4. To ensure the part is ready for Bulldog Adhesion Promoter application, mist a small area with water. If sheeting occurs, dry the surface and proceed. If water beads up, repeat cleaning as directed above. beading sheeting TECHNICAL DATA: Appearance Vapor Density Percent Volatile Flash Point CPSC Flammability Classification MAX V.O.C.
