Internal Repair Product Application SOP (PD-0702)

PPG's internal repair system is designed to provide a simple repair process when there's a specific underhood color or where the internal area is a low gloss version of the external color. This SOP will guide you through the Internal Repair Product Application. Before beginning any repair, it is important to always wear the recommended safety protection required for the job.
