HyperDyne Pre-Coats

The Foundation for More Efficient Vehicle Finishes


Axalta's HyperDyne pre-coat technologies are engineered to do more than prepare a surface for paint. They create the foundation for advanced coating processes that help automotive OEMs improve productivity, reduce energy consumption, and deliver outstanding vehicle appearance and durability.

By enabling wet-on-wet application and reducing the need for intermediate bake cycles, HyperDyne pre-coats support more efficient paint shop operations while maintaining the performance standards required for today's vehicles.

Improve Efficiency Without Compromising Quality

As automotive manufacturers look to reduce operating costs, lower emissions, and optimize production, HyperDyne pre-coat technology plays a critical role in making process efficiency possible by helping:

  • Reduce bake cycles and energy consumption
  • Improve paint shop productivity and throughput
  • Minimize facility footprint and oven requirements
  • Lower capital and operating costs
  • Support sustainability and VOC reduction goals
  • Maintain exceptional appearance, durability, and corrosion protection

POWERING ADVANCED COATING PROCESSES WITH HYPERDYNE

3-Wet Harmonized Coating Technology™

Axalta's 3-Wet system utilizes a specially formulated pre-coat that enables primer, basecoat, and clearcoat layers to be applied in succession before a single cure cycle. By replacing traditional primer baking ovens with a more energy-efficient flash zone, OEMs can streamline operations while achieving the appearance and durability expected from conventional systems.

3-Wet Benefits include:

  • Reduced energy usage
  • Fewer bake cycles
  • Increased line efficiency
  • Lower infrastructure requirements
  • Excellent scratch and mar resistance

Eco-Concept Technology

Eco-Concept leverages advanced pre-coat chemistry to simplify the coating process by effectively combining primer and basecoat functionality. This approach reduces process complexity, eliminates intermediate baking steps, and helps manufacturers improve efficiency while delivering rich color and long-term finish protection.

Eco-Concept Benefits include:

  • Accelerated production
  • Reduced energy consumption
  • Low-VOC and waterborne options
  • Strong UV, chip, and scratch resistance
  • High-quality appearance

2-Wet Monocoat System

The 2-Wet Monocoat System relies on a specialized pre-coat to create the foundation for a high-performance monocoat finish. By reducing coating and drying steps, the system helps OEMs improve throughput and reduce energy consumption while maintaining excellent appearance and long-term durability.

2-Wet Benefits include:

  • Fewer application steps
  • Reduced paint shop footprint
  • Improved productivity
  • Exceptional gloss retention
  • Durable, high-quality finishes
