Following the welding shop at the former Volkswagen plant in Kaluga, the workshop that will handle the painting of TENET cars has also been brought to full readiness for the production cycle. The company shared details on what the complete process of applying paint and varnish coatings to car bodies will look like.
The process will be carried out in 7 stages: degreasing and phosphating by full immersion, application of a cataphoretic primer using RoDip technology, body drying, protection of the underbody and sealing of seams with PVC materials, application of a secondary primer, base enamel and varnish, final drying of the body and treatment of hidden cavities with special wax, which further protects the car from corrosion.
For testing and measurements, more than 50 pre-production bodies were painted at the enterprise, and the tests confirmed "the compliance of the quality of the paintwork with the highest international standards."
