FAQs

What surfaces can I use the Tygris Zinc Galvanised Spray on?

It is suitable for most metal surfaces, including steel, iron, and other alloys. Always test on a small area first.

How long does the spray take to dry?

Drying time varies depending on environmental conditions. It typically takes around 30 minutes to an hour for the surface to be dry to the touch, and 24 hours for full curing.

Can I paint over the Zinc Galvanised Spray?

Yes, the spray can be over-coated with most types of paints once it is fully cured.

How do I prepare a rusty surface before applying the spray?

Remove loose rust with a wire brush or sandpaper. Clean the surface with a degreaser and ensure it is completely dry before application.

What is the coverage area of a 400ml can?

Coverage depends on the thickness of the application. A 400ml can typically covers approximately 1-2 square meters.

How should I store the spray?

Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Is the spray safe to use?

Always use in a well-ventilated area and wear appropriate safety equipment, such as gloves and a mask. Follow the safety instructions on the can.

Troubleshooting

Spray nozzle clogs.

Clean the nozzle with a solvent or replace it. Invert the can and spray for a few seconds after use to clear the nozzle.

Poor adhesion to the surface.

Ensure the surface is clean and free of rust, grease, and old paint. Lightly sand the surface for better adhesion.

Uneven finish.

Apply multiple thin coats instead of one thick coat. Maintain a consistent distance from the surface while spraying.

Rust reappears after application.

Ensure all rust is removed before application. Consider using a rust converter prior to spraying for severely rusted areas.
