The plastic fender for the CLK 63 AMG Black series sums up all the core competencies of the company:
- Plastic parts production with PU, Elastolit or thermoplastics, tooling included
- Coating with four-layer pearl effect, metallic or special colors and exact matching to the rest of the body 

- Pre-assembly of decorative and functional parts, additional components in proper configuration for just in   time delivery at the OEMs assembly line

Weiss proves worldwide technological leadership with trend colors like "Alubeam" and "Diamond White".  These coating applications belong to the technically most challenging of the industry. In this field Weiss is a partner highly on demand by car manufacturers, as a first tier supplier as well as in the after sales market.

There is hardly a vendor worldwide with a process proof multi layer coating capability on par with Weiss. Beyond the premium look the company could realize cost reductions at the same time. The number of usual process steps was reduced.

- procurement or integration of all exterior parts
- coating of all parts in one run with robot facilities
- PUR RIM coating, carbon coating, thermoplastic coating
- complete body coating, sheet metal included
- delivery of the complete body kit to the customers logistics chain

Four layer pearl effect coating
-  places special demands on the painting process
-  the normal coating consisting of primer, base color,

   and clear varnish is supplemented by two additional layers:

   pearl and a further coat of clear varnish
- requires a second pass through the painting plant
- colorimetric methods in addition to visual checks are used to monitor the process

>>>

Carbon look with transparent coating, carbon coating interior and exterior:
-  preparation of carbon surfaces is a core competence
-  painting of carbon parts by robot even at minor volumes

Painting CFRP (carbon fibre reinforced parts) is a Weiss speciality
