Painting
A wide variety of colors and textures can be applied to the Forward Looking Radar housing using commercially available organic paints
and conventional application processes.
Painting the component may assist with color degradation over time.
The following guidelines apply:
• Paints must not contain metal or carbon particles.
• Carbon content of paint could be a factor as high concentrations could reduce transparency.
• Paint thickness may impact the radar's ability to pass through the surface.
• It is not recommended to paint the lens area.
• Do not paint the FLR mirror.
• Do not paint the mounting points as it could cause incorrect bracket engagement.
• Protect the connector breather element during any painting operation.
