FAQs

What is the coverage area of the 150ml can?

Coverage varies based on the surface and number of coats, but generally, expect a moderate area suitable for touch-ups and small projects.

Can I use this paint on plastic bumpers?

Yes, Hycote Double Acrylic Spray Paint is suitable for use on plastic bumpers, provided the surface is properly prepared and primed.

What is the drying time?

Drying time is fast, typically within minutes. However, allow sufficient time for full curing before handling the painted surface.

Do I need to apply a clear coat?

It depends on the application. For some projects, a clear coat may be desired for added protection and gloss. Check the project requirements.

How do I dispose of the empty can?

Follow local regulations for aerosol can disposal. Generally, empty cans should be disposed of at a recycling center.

Is this paint resistant to gasoline?

This paint is designed for general automotive use, but long-term exposure to gasoline should be avoided. Consult the manufacturer for specifics.

What is the shelf life of the paint?

Unopened cans have a shelf life of several years if stored correctly. Check the can for a best-before date.

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or dripping.

Apply thinner coats and ensure the can is held at the correct distance from the surface.

Color mismatch.

Ensure you are using the correct manufacturer's paint code (P2/9/1305C for FORD Graphite Grey Metallic).

No paint coming out of the nozzle.

Shake the can vigorously. Clean the nozzle with a solvent if clogged.

Paint not drying properly.

Ensure adequate ventilation and allow sufficient drying time between coats.
