The information provided is intended to serve as a guide for the application of field applied air-dry paint systems used in small areas where the factory applied paint systems may be scratched or marred during the construction phase of a project. MCA does not condone or endorse the use of field applied air-dry paint systems and ultimate acceptance of such field work is at the discretion of others. Air-dry (touch-up) paint systems are 

essential tools to be utilized when completing building construction. In some cases, it may be necessary to maintain the quality of the overall structure by applying field applied air-dry paint systems. In still other cases, the best option may be to replace the entire panel or panels. It is strongly suggested that the building panel supplier be consulted to identify any particulars of the factory-applied paint system and provide guidance before attempting to apply a touch-up paint system.
