Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to prepare vehicle substrates for refinishing by removing surface rust and scale, and applying primers and sealers before the final refinishing. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, selecting and using materials, cleaning vehicle substrate surfaces according to manufacturer specifications, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive paint refinishing repair industry. The preparation of plastic or composite materials for refinishing is not addressed in this unit.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of task.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the vehicle substrates that they have prepared for refinishing, e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace

workplace instructions

TDS and SDS for primers and chemical cleaners

PPE required to prepare substrates for refinishing

materials required to prepare substrates for refinishing

vehicle substrates specified in the performance evidence requiring preparation for refinishing

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for preparing vehicle substrates for refinishing.
