Re: [A/S] Re: Clearcoat + painting A/S



Jerry,
I asked while at the factory in August and they
recommend Walbernize Super Seal for the current
production models.  

From what they told me they switched to pretreated
panels from Alcoa Aluminum after a fiasco with the
clear coat materials in 94 and 95.  

Apparently they had trailers with clear coat peeling
that were only 3 months old.  They would recoat them
at the factory and they would turn up bad again after
3 months.  They tracked it down the problem to the
clear coat manufacturer who had changed the formula.
