FAQs

Can I apply this over bare metal?

Yes, but ensure the metal is properly sanded and cleaned to provide a mechanical key for adhesion.

Is this a topcoat?

No, this is a high-build primer intended as a base layer; it must be sanded and covered with a compatible topcoat.

How long should I wait before sanding?

Drying times vary by temperature and humidity, but it is generally ready to sand once the surface is fully cured and hard to the touch.

Can I use this for full panel repairs?

While it can be used for larger areas, its high-build nature makes it best suited for spot and small-to-medium repair zones.

Does this product require a hardener?

No, this is a 1K (one-component) product and is ready to use directly from the canister.

Troubleshooting

Nozzle clogging during use

Remove the nozzle and soak it in paint thinner, or replace it if the clog persists.

Primer running or sagging

Apply thinner coats and increase the distance between the can and the surface during application.

Rough finish after drying

The surface was likely sprayed from too far away; sand the surface smooth and re-apply with closer, steady passes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-filling capacity for covering deep scratches
  • Professional-grade finish from an easy-to-use aerosol
  • Saves time on equipment setup and cleaning
  • Exceptional sanding properties
  • Fast drying time

Cons

  • Requires proper ventilation for safe application
  • Limited coverage area compared to bulk paint systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and free from grease or wax. Shake the canister vigorously for at least two minutes to ensure the pigment and binders are thoroughly mixed. Maintain a distance of 15 to 20 cm from the surface while spraying using sweeping motions. For care, always invert the canister after use and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle, preventing clogs. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the propellant.
