Unit of Competency AURVTP3024 - Mix and apply clear over-base multi-layer pearl refinishing materials
Description This unit describes the performance outcomes required to mix and apply clear over-base multi-layer pearl refinishing materials to a variety of vehicle substrates by spray-gun application. It also involves determining the causes of paint finish faults and rectifying them. The unit involves preparing for work and completing work finalisation processes, including clean-up and documentation.Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements may apply to this unit in some jurisdictions. Users are advised to check with the relevant regulatory authority.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application Work applies to refinishing technicians in a repair environment who apply clear over-base pearl materials to a range of vehicles.Work requires individuals to demonstrate judgement and problem-solving skills in managing own work activities and contributing to a productive team environment.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.
Prerequisites/co-requisites Not applicable.
