PO205 Practice Paper 1

A low carbon steel panel can be identified by:

• A manufactures identification code

• Checking to see if it is magnetic

• Carrying out a solvent test

• Checking the visual appearance

Lightweight and non-ferrous are the main properties of what panel material?

• Aluminium

• Stainless steel

• Low carbon steel

• Galvanised steel

Different types of plastic components/panels are identified by:

• The vehicle identification number

• The manufactures part number

• The identification code

• The product serial number

The main properties of a 2K primer FILLER are:

• Excellent adhesion and flexibility

• High solids and film build

• Textured and malleable

• Non-sanding and air drying

A panel material that has a visual appearance of strands layered in a resin is known as:

• Plastic reinforced glass

• Glass coated resin layers

• Reinforced coated plastic

• Glass reinforced plastic

What ingredient can be added to a primer surfacer, to give it the property of elasticity?

• Coloured tinter

• Adhesion promoter

• Flexible additive

• Texturing base

What foundation material must be applied to a bare plastic bumper, before spraying/applying a “wet on wet” primer?

• An adhesion promoter

• A flexible additive

• An acid etching primer

• A zinc primer

What is the purpose of an etch primer?

• Reduce porosity

• Increase flexibility

• Prevent polymerisation

• Promote adhesion

What type of cleaning agent is suitable for cleaning a LARGE vehicle panel in a spray booth?

• Fast evaporating cleaner/degreaser

• Slow evaporating cleaner/degreaser

• Road traffic film remover/cleaner

• Multipurpose cleaner/degreaser

Failure to remove panel wipe/degreaser during the cleaning process, will result in:

• Poor adhesion

• Silicone contamination

• Micro blistering

• Paint crazing
