FAQs

Can I use this paint indoors?

Yes, but it must be used in a very well-ventilated area due to the aerosol fumes.

Do I need to sand the surface before applying?

You should remove loose rust or flaking material with a wire brush or steel wool, but heavy sanding is not required unless the surface is extremely uneven.

Can this be used on plastic?

Yes, the formula is specifically designed to adhere to plastic as well as wood, metal, and ceramic.

How long until it is touch dry?

You should wait 15-20 minutes between coats, but the paint requires 24 hours to fully harden.

Can I apply this in direct sunlight?

No, direct sunlight can interfere with the curing process and should be avoided.

Does it need a separate clear coat?

No, it is an all-in-one product that functions as a primer, undercoat, and topcoat.

Troubleshooting

The paint is running or sagging during application

You are likely holding the can too close to the surface or applying too much paint at once; switch to thinner, more frequent passes from a distance of 15-25cm.

The finish looks uneven or thin

Ensure you have shaken the can for the full 2 minutes as instructed, and check that the ambient temperature is within the recommended 15°C-25°C range.

Paint is not adhering to the surface

The surface may still have traces of oil, grease, or loose debris; clean the area thoroughly with a degreaser and ensure it is completely dry before repainting.
