Which products do I use for various damages?
How do I find the right color to restore the substrate?
At the top of our webshop you can enter your color in the search bar. First indicate whether it concerns a RAL color or powder coating color. After this you will find all products that are available in this color. Do you want to retouch a surface that will be in the sun? Then pick the 2C variant. If you want direct adhesion to metal/steel, choose 2C DTM.
