AUT I. CATALOG DESCRIPTION A. Prerequisite: Auto Collision: Paint I B. 3 semester hours credit C. Students will learn refinishing safety and environmental regulations, automotive paints, and paint application equipment. II. EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES/ASSESSMENT MEASURE Students will use and maintain air preparation and breathing air systems. Students will utilize product sheets to determine compatible surfaces and surface preparation, mixing ratios, and dry time. Students will utilize personal safety equipment for mixing paint, hardeners, and reducers according to manufacturers product sheets. Students will utilize Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and interpret MSDS codes. Students will identify types of hazardous wastes in a collision repair facility, follow regulations for storage and disposal of hazardous waste, and practice response to a hazardous materials emergency. Students will examine differences in gravity and siphon feed spray guns and the type of compressed air required for refinishing, Students will describe the difference between drying and curing, the types of refinishing materials, mixing ratios, and equipment for mixing.
