This precision 12.5ml paint delivers a professional-grade, colour-matched finish that is fast-drying and durable against harsh weather conditions, though it is intended specifically for small, localized surface repairs rather than large-scale automotive bodywork.

FAQs
Can I use this on plastic bumpers?
Yes, this paint is compatible with plastic surfaces as well as metal, wood, and ceramic.
How long does it take to dry?
The formula is fast-drying, typically touch-dry within minutes, though full curing takes longer depending on ambient temperature.
Is this paint compatible with my car's existing finish?
Yes, it is designed for compatibility with OEM acrylic and cellulosic finishes.
What should I do if I get paint outside the scratch?
Wipe away excess immediately with a lint-free cloth dampened with a small amount of appropriate solvent or paint thinner.
How do I ensure the colour is mixed well?
Shake the bottle vigorously for at least one minute until the mixing ball inside is heard clearly.
Can this be used for painting entire panels?
No, this product is intended for small, localized repairs like stone chips and scratches, not large surface areas.
Troubleshooting
Paint appears patchy or uneven
Ensure the surface was thoroughly degreased. Apply multiple thin coats instead of one thick layer.
Cap is stuck or hard to open
Clean the neck of the bottle and the cap threads with a small amount of thinners before tightening after each use.
Colour does not perfectly match
Verify the vehicle's paint code against the manufacturer's label. Fading of original vehicle paint can cause a slight perception difference.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before applying, ensure the vehicle surface is clean, dry, and free of wax or polish, as residue will prevent the paint from bonding correctly. The product is compatible with most OEM finishes, including acrylic and cellulose. To care for the container, always wipe the brush handle threads before closing to prevent the cap from seizing. Store the paint in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to extend the shelf life of the resins. Shake the bottle vigorously for at least one minute before use to ensure proper pigment suspension.
