Technical description of Autowave MM601 binder from the professional brand Sikkens: characteristics, advantages and use in car workshops:
What is Autowave MM601?
This professional product, specially designed for use in car bodywork, is part of the Sikkens Autowave system, one of the best performing water-based paint ranges on the market. This binder is specially designed for use in Autowave colour formulations, as an essential component of the Matt basecoat. It is easy to apply and gives a high quality surface finish.
This product is available in 1 litre cans for your repair work.
Its role is to guarantee the fluidity, stability and even distribution of the pigments, while optimising the penetration of the product on the car substrate. In a standard formulation, MM601 acts as a binder medium for the coloured pigments, ensuring perfect compatibility between all the components in the system.
What are the technical characteristics of MM601 binder?
- Type : waterborne binder for Matt basecoat
- Compatible system: Sikkens Autowave MM 2.0
- Use : shade formulation
What are the advantages of using it for your car repairs?
1. High mixture stability:
The MM601 product ensures excellent shade stability over time, preventing the pigments from separating from the base in the pots. This ensures a more even application and saves time in the workshop for the body repairer. It has excellent application properties.
2. High colour accuracy:
Thanks to its excellent transparency and appropriate binding power, MM601 enables faithful restoration of manufacturers' colours, even the most complex (three-layer, special effects, pearlescent).
3. Easy, even application:
It promotes fine atomisation, even tautness and even distribution of pigments on the substrate. The bodybuilder obtains a uniform film with no excess thickness and simple dosage, which is essential for visual effects such as metallic or pearlescent.
4. A product that meets environmental standards:
As a waterborne binder, MM601 meets the requirements of European VOC standards. It helps to reduce environmental impact while offering equivalent, or even superior, performance to traditional solvent-based systems.
5. Versatile use:
This product is perfectly suited to small spot-repairs, complete panels or high-precision Touch up, and can be overcoated with the Clearcoats and primers in the Sikkens system.
