All fascias, with the exception of the Corvette, Camaro and Cadillac XLR, are made of TPO. You may find other TPO parts. If the technician has a



question as to the type of plastic they are painting, inspect the back of the part for the plastic symbol (TPO). Prior to painting, prepare the part by



following this process:



1. Wash with soap and water.



2. Clean with a 50% mix of isopropyl alcohol and water (or a waterborne cleaner). Check with your paint supplier for product



recommendations.



3. Scuff sand per your paint supplier's recommendations.



Note



The use of a solvent-type cleaner will soften, or begin to dissolve, the primer. Base coats do not have any affect on this primer.



4. Reclean with a 50% mix of isopropyl alcohol and water (or a waterborne cleaner).
