Refinishing Accessories

Automotive refinishing and workshop accessories

Professional refinishing requires more than paint, primer and clear coat. A wide range of smaller workshop accessories and consumables helps make everyday preparation, mixing, application and repair work cleaner and more efficient.

This category includes practical products such as touch-up brushes, wipes, sponges, mixing cups, paint strainers, spreaders and other workshop supplies used throughout the automotive refinishing process.

Mixing cups for paints and clear coats

A suitable mixing cup makes it easier to prepare paints, primers, clear coats and other multi-component materials accurately. Printed mixing scales help you follow the ratio specified for the individual coating system.

Accurate measurement is particularly important with 2K materials, so always follow the mixing ratio given in the technical data sheet for the specific product.

Paint strainers for cleaner application

A paint strainer helps remove dried particles, contamination and other unwanted material before paint, primer or clear coat enters the spray gun.

Filtering the material can help reduce spray problems and surface defects. Select the appropriate strainer grade for the type of coating being used.

Spreaders and mixing tools

Spreaders and mixing tools are useful for preparing and applying body fillers and other thicker repair materials. Selecting the appropriate size and flexibility can make it easier to distribute material evenly across the repair area.

Always keep tools clean, as cured residue from previous materials can contaminate a freshly mixed product.

Touch-up brushes for small paint repairs

Touch-up brushes are useful for stone chips, small scratches and localised paint damage. Their small size allows controlled application of a limited amount of paint directly to the damaged area.

Clean and degrease the repair area thoroughly before application and follow the instructions for the paint system being used.

Wipes and cleaning materials

A clean surface is essential throughout the refinishing process. Different wipes can be used for dust removal, cleaning, degreasing and general workshop tasks depending on their intended application.

Choose a wiping material that is compatible with the surface and chemical being used and that does not introduce unwanted lint or contamination.

Sponges and general workshop supplies

Sponges and other small accessories can be used for a variety of cleaning, application and preparation tasks. As their purpose varies between products, always use each accessory according to its intended application.

Practical supplies for everyday bodyshop work

Small workshop accessories often make a significant difference to the efficiency of everyday work. The correct mixing cup, clean paint strainer or suitable spreader can simplify the process and help reduce avoidable errors.

This category brings together useful automotive refinishing supplies that may not require a dedicated product category but remain important for body repair, paint preparation and general workshop use.
