Novol N91075 N-Range Sleek 100 – Multifunctional Lightweight Putty, 1.0 Litre
The Novol N91075 Sleek 100 is a premium, two-component (2K) multifunctional putty from the advanced N-Range series. Engineered for the modern technician, this 1.0-litre unit represents a leap in filler technology, offering an ultra-creamy consistency that allows for an exceptionally "sleek" application.
Designed to bridge the gap between a high-build body filler and a fine finishing glaze, Sleek 100 provides a pinhole-free surface that requires significantly less sanding effort than traditional polyester putties.
Key Features & Benefits
- Ultra-Smooth "Sleek" Application: Formulated with micro-sphere technology to provide a buttery texture that spreads effortlessly, allowing for thin, feathered edges that blend perfectly into the panel.
- Multifunctional Performance: High enough build to fill medium dents (up to 3-5mm) while remaining fine enough to act as a final glaze over other fillers.
- Rapid & Easy Sanding: Specifically engineered to be "soft-sanding." It cuts quickly with P150–P180 and finishes smoothly with P320, reducing abrasive paper consumption and labor time.
- Pinhole-Free Technology: The dense, fine-particle structure minimizes air entrapment, resulting in a non-porous surface that won't "soak up" primer.
- Superior Adhesion: Bonds aggressively to a vast array of automotive substrates, including:
- Bare Steel and Aluminium
- Galvanized (Zinc-coated) Steel
- Two-component (2K) Acrylic Primers
- Existing sanded paintwork and GRP (Fiberglass)
- Low Linear Shrinkage: High-grade resins ensure the repair remains stable over time, preventing "mapping" or outlines from appearing in the final topcoat.
Professional Application Tips
- Preparation: Sand the substrate with P120–P180. Clean and degrease thoroughly with Novol N65503 Silicone Remover.
- Mixing: For a golf-ball-sized amount of putty, use a "pea-sized" amount of hardener. Mix thoroughly until the color is 100% uniform to avoid "bleeding" through the paint.
- Application: Use a metal or plastic spreader. Apply the first layer with firm pressure to "wet" the surface and ensure maximum mechanical adhesion, then build to the desired thickness.
- Sanding: Because it is so easy to sand, start with a finer grit than usual (e.g., P180) to avoid over-sanding and losing the shape of the repair.
Why Choose the N-Range Sleek 100?
In high-production environments, the goal is "one-step" filling. The Novol Sleek 100 eliminates the need to apply a separate fine glaze over a coarse filler. Its ability to go from a 3mm fill to a paper-thin edge in one application makes it the most efficient choice for daily collision repair and high-end detailing alike.
