Sikkens Autoclear Optima, a new high-performance clearcoat developed for the demands of modern bodyshops. Bodyshops are under increasing pressure to complete repairs faster while maintaining a high-quality finish and controlling operational costs. Autoclear Optima has been developed to help address these demands by combining fast drying, application flexibility and premium finish quality.
Speed and flexibility for every repair
Autoclear Optima offers multiple drying options, allowing painters to select the process that best fits the repair and workshop workflow. It can be ready to handle from 7 minutes at 40°C, from 5 minutes at 50°C, or from 50 minutes with ambient drying at 20°C.*
This flexibility helps bodyshops balance throughput, booth capacity and energy use.
A simpler refinishing process
The clearcoat uses an efficient 1.5-coat application with no flash-off required, helping reduce process time and material usage. A straightforward 100:50 mixing ratio also makes preparation easier and supports consistent application.
At the same time, Autoclear Optima delivers high gloss, smooth flow and easy polishing, helping painters achieve the premium finish expected from Sikkens.
Part of the Sikkens Optima System
Autoclear Optima is designed to work together with Autowave® Optima and Autosurfacer® Optima as part of the complete Sikkens Optima System.
When used as part of the full system it will be reducing process time, improving efficiency and delivering premium finishes. Time after time.
