FAQs
How long does the paint take to dry?
The paint is fast-drying. Recoat within 10-15 minutes and fully dry in approximately 1-2 hours, depending on temperature and humidity.
Can I use this on car parts?
While it adheres well and is weather resistant, it's primarily designed for general DIY and hobby use. For automotive parts subjected to extreme conditions, specialized automotive paints are recommended.
What is the coverage of one can?
A 400 ml can typically covers approximately 1.5 to 2 square meters with a single coat, depending on the surface and application thickness.
Do I need a primer?
A primer is recommended for optimal adhesion, especially on porous surfaces like wood or certain plastics. It also helps ensure a uniform metallic finish.
How should I store the spray can?
Store the can in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, open flames, and direct sunlight. Ensure the nozzle is cleared after each use.
Can this paint be painted over?
Yes, once fully dry, the paint can be recoated with itself or other compatible lacquers. For best results, always test on a small area first.
Troubleshooting
Uneven spray or splattering
Shake the can more vigorously. Ensure the nozzle is not clogged. Try spraying from a slightly further distance. Clear the nozzle as per instructions.
Paint not adhering well
Ensure the surface was properly cleaned and degreased. Lightly sand the surface before application. Check if a primer was needed for the specific material.
Runs or drips
Apply paint in thin, even coats rather than one thick coat. Maintain a consistent distance from the surface. Allow adequate drying time between coats.
Lack of metallic effect
Ensure the paint was shaken thoroughly for at least two minutes. Apply in consistent, even coats. Check if the surface was properly prepared.
