The PPG paint systems are qualified to Pilatus Specification PMS0600-52-01 and approved for application on the Pilatus PC-24 twinjet, PC-12 NG turboprop, PC-6 multirole aircraft, and PC-21, PC-9 M, and PC-7 MkII military trainers.

The basic system consists of specified versions of PPG’s Desoprime pretreatment wash primer, Desoprime primer, Desofill HS sanding surfacer, and Desothane topcoat and clearcoat. Special effects options are also qualified with the same primers and sanding surfacer, as well as metallic topcoat, mica coat, and matte clearcoat. These coating systems were developed with the latest innovative technology, according to Thorsten Schleyer, PPG’s account manager for Pilatus.
