Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Prepare to apply solid acrylic two-pack materials
   • Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions
   • Application information is accessed and interpreted
   • Acrylic two-pack materials are selected and inspected for quality
   • Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed
   • Tools and equipment, including personal protective equipment (PPE), are selected and checked for serviceability
   • Work is planned to identify solid acrylic two-pack application method, minimise waste, and prevent damage to vehicle
2. Carry out application activities
   • Two-pack materials are mixed and applied according to paint manufacturer recommended intervals, and safety and environmental requirements, and without causing damage to vehicle system or components
   • Materials are dried using approved methods and equipment
   • Paint finish is checked against specifications
   • Paint surface faults are removed using compounds, polishes and glazes
3. Complete work processes
   • Final inspection is made to ensure work meets workplace expectations and vehicle or component is presented ready for use
   • Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected and stored
   • Tools and equipment are checked, reported if faulty, and stored according to workplace procedures
   • Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures

Range Statement

This section specifies work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below.

Application information mustinclude:	manufacturer specifications workplace procedures paint technical data sheets (TDS) paint safety data sheets (SDS).
Safety and environmental requirements must include:	work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, including procedures for: selecting and using PPE using TDS and SDS for solid acrylic two-pack materials handling and storing paint materials using tools and equipment using approved drying area environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of waste materials.
Checking paint finish must include:	checking colour, texture, depth and gloss ensuring paint finish is contaminant-free ensuring paint finish blends into surrounding surfaces.
