This video is the first of a three-part series, which covers U-POL’s Specialty Fillers.

It’s aluminum-reinforced, and contains aluminum flakes so it’s perfect for restoration or classic car work, or ANY application requiring medium to deep amounts of filler.

• These crème hardeners are available in two colors, red and blue, and can be ordered separately for convenience.
• U-POL D’s formula is non-shrinking, smooth-spreading, and has excellent filling properties.

This video demonstrates our Fibral Lite Lightweight Sandable Fiberglass Filler. With Fibral Lite, you get two products in one!

Fibral Lite is two products in one, because it spreads like a short strand, but bridges holes like a long strand, so there’s no need to stock two different products!

Fibral Lite:

• Can be applied directly to metal, steel, plastics and is specially formulated for fiberglass, which I will show today
• Fibral Lite is a durable, yet lightweight formula that can easily be shaped and sanded, once cured
• Unlike the competition, Fibral Lite is completely waterproof whereas leading competitors’ brands are not!
• Competitive brands must be top-coated with another filler before it is waterproof, so you must use an extra product to waterproof, which means more money and more time spent on your repair
• Also, Fibral Lite won’t sag, even on vertical surfaces – it spreads, adheres and finishes like a polyester filler

Our Dolphin Premium All-in-One Filler and our RAPID SYSTEM Primer – which will allow shops to fill and prime in as little as 30 minutes!

U-POL understands that time is of the essence in a body shop. We understand how important it is to use products and processes that will help save you time and money so your operation can run as effectively AND efficiently as possible.

RAPTOR 2K Anti-Corrosive Epoxy Primer Aerosol

Many of the pinholes we deal with come from the way that we mix the filler itself. A little technique… Take the spreader and form it in a sort of C shape position, place it perpendicular to the mixing board and make a figure 8 sign. You can see how the activator is picked up and move directly into the filler. This doesn’t introduce any external air into the filler. Do this for about 30 seconds, then pick the filler up, press it out. If you still see the hardener through the paste, simply pick the product up again, run the figure 8 for another few seconds. Then pick the filler up and press it down again.

You can find out more about the Dolphin One Fill Premium Body Filler which features in this video here or to you can learn more about the U-Pol Onion Board here.

This video will focus on the types of RAPTOR tints and additives that are available.

#1: Remove the wheel from the vehicle.
#2: Use a pressure washer to thoroughly clean the wheel. Remove all dirt, grime and break dust from both sides.
#3: Remove any wheel weights attached to the wheel.
#4: Tape valve stems so they don’t get caught with Raptor in the application process.
#5: Degrease to remove any road tar, contaminants and oil residues.
#6: Sand with 180-220 grit sand paper and a red scuff pad, getting down to OEM.
#7: Use a red scuff pad to get into all contour areas of the wheel.
#8: Blow off and reclean with degreaser.
#9: Use small 2″ pieces of tape to mask off tyre and protect it from overpsray. Continue the masking process around the outside edges of the wheel.
#10: For corrosion protection and additional adhesion, use a primer. We recommend 2 coats of Raptor 2K Epoxy Primer (REP/AL), Raptor Acid Etch Primer (RPTEP/AL) or U-POL Acid Etch Primer (ACID/AL). Cover any area where bare metal has been exposed.
#11: Apply a 1st coat of Raptor @ 4 bar and about 32″ from the surface.
#12: Apply the 2nd coat at 45° angle, opposite from the 1st spray.

#5: Remove RAPTOR from the damaged area with 80 to 120 grit abrasive.
#6: Thoroughly blow off the area and degrease again.
#7: Apply your filler to the damaged area.
#8: Sand to shape when dry with grit 120 to start and finish off with 180.
#9: Abrade the surrounding area which is to be recoated with a fine scuff pad and degrease.
#10: Any bare metal areas should be treated with an appropriate primer.
#11: Apply a light coat of RAPTOR Adhesion Promoter over the area which has been abraded with a scuff pad for optimum adhesion.
#12: Apply a light coat of RAPTOR over the repair area to achieve the required texture.
