  martinzacharyAug 15, 2025
  If you're experiencing under cure or softness of the paint film with your B-TEC Heater, it could be due to several reasons. The unit might be too far away from the panel; in this case, move the unit closer. Another cause could be insufficient bake time, so try increasing the full bake time. Finally, excessive film weight can also lead to this issue, so consider applying lighter coats.

How to prevent solvent popping with B-TEC Heater?
- M
  muellerchadAug 18, 2025
  Solvent popping when using the B-TEC Heater can occur if the unit is too close to the panel; move it further away. It may also happen due to insufficient flash off time, so increase the flash off time. Another possible reason is that the paint system has a fast reducer; try using a standard or slow reducer instead.

  If you're finding it difficult to polish out dirt nibs after using the B-TEC Heater, it could be because the bake cycle was too long, so reduce the cure time. Alternatively, the unit may have been too close to the panel; in that case, move the unit further away.

Why am I experiencing softness on the edges of the repair with my B-TEC Heater?
- A
  Alejandra CampbellAug 25, 2025
  Softness on the edges of the repair when using your B-TEC Heater might be because the repair is too large for the I.R. unit. Split the area into two, and move the unit for the 2nd application. If flash off is used, it will not be necessary on the second application.

  If your B-TEC Dryer produces a poor curing or transparent coating, this may be due to several reasons. The emitter might be too far from the repaired surface, in which case you should move the machine closer. Another cause could be insufficient baking time, so try increasing it. Finally, the coating may be too thick; consider thinning it.

  If you notice small pores on the baked surface when using your B-TEC Dryer, several factors could be responsible. It might be that the emitter is too close to the repaired surface, so try increasing the distance. Another reason may be insufficient preheating time, so increase the preheating time. Finally, a fast thinning agent in the paint could be the culprit; switch to a standard or slow thinning agent.

  If your B-TEC Dryer is causing a fuzzy edge, it's likely because the repair surface is too large. To address this, try curing in two steps. You can also move the device for the second step. Another approach is to preheat for the first step but skip preheating for the second step.
