Elements and Performance Criteria
Elements Elements describe the essential outcomes. |
Performance Criteria Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold and italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section. |
1. Prepare to rectify multi-layer and pearl paint fault |
1.1 Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions 1.2 Paint rectification information is accessed and interpreted 1.3 Vehicle paint specifications are identified from workplace instructions and recorded 1.4 Multi-layer and pearl paint materials are selected and inspected for quality 1.5 Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed 1.6 Paint tools and equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) are selected and checked for serviceability 1.7 Work is planned to identify methods for rectifying multi-layer and pearl paint faults, minimise waste, and prevent damage to vehicle |
2. Determine paint fault, its cause and rectification requirements |
2.1 Cause of paint fault is determined from available information 2.2 Faulty paintwork is visually inspected to determine extent of damage and areas requiring rectification 2.3 Existing paint film build-up is identified and assessed 2.4 Damage to paintwork is assessed from visual comparison with undamaged paintwork 2.5 Fault rectification requirements are determined without causing undue damage to vehicle components or systems |
3. Carry out rectification and touch-up activities |
3.1 Materials required to restore paintwork to pre-damage condition are determined from paint manufacturer recommended procedures 3.2 Materials are measured, mixed and applied using approved equipment 3.3 Damaged paintwork is rectified and blended with existing paintwork using two-pack system 3.4 Rectification processes are completed according to workplace procedures and safety and environmental requirements , and without causing damage to vehicle components and systems |
4. Complete work processes |
4.1 Final inspection is made to ensure work meets workplace expectations and vehicle or component is presented ready for use 4.2 Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected and stored 4.3 Tools and equipment are checked, reported if faulty, and stored according to workplace procedures 4.4 Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures |
