Coatings.
Anti-Chip
Anti-chip coatings are used to protect vulnerable, painted parts of the vehicle such as sills, wings,
wheel arches and valances.
Most body corrosion results from stone chips to susceptible exposed paintwork. Stone chips can penetrate
the paint and underlying protective coatings to allow corrosion to eat into the substrate from the surface.
3M supply rubberised anti-chip coatings with a wide range of finishes. All are overpaintable, flexible, fast drying
and weather, stone chip and corrosion resistant.
3M ™ Body Gard ™ Textured Coatings
This rubber-based coating was developed to enable most manufacturers’ stone chip finishes
to be reproduced in the bodyshop. Black, white and grey coatings are available for application
to any part of the car requiring stone chip protection. Medium to heavy textures can be
obtained depending on the application method used.
• Excellent stone chip resistance.
• High solids.
• Coating becomes tack free in 10 –15 minutes. Can be painted with air drying and low bake
paints after two hours at normal temperatures. The application of a primer is recommended.
