FAQs
Can this be sprayed over existing paint or upholstery?
No, this product is designed specifically for application on *unfinished* automotive interior surfaces. It is not recommended for use on painted, carpeted, or upholstered areas.
How long does it take to dry?
Drying times can vary based on temperature and humidity. Typically, it requires adequate time for each coat to become dry to the touch before recoating, with a full cure taking several hours.
What is the coverage area of one 355ml can?
Coverage varies depending on the application thickness and the surface area being treated. For best results, apply thin, even coats.
Can I apply this to the exterior of my vehicle?
No, this product is formulated for interior automotive applications only and is not suitable for exterior use.
Will this coating melt or degrade under high heat?
The advanced ceramic sphere technology is engineered to reflect heat up to 375°F, providing significant thermal protection within typical automotive interior conditions.
Is the water-soluble formula permanent?
The coating becomes durable once cured. While water-soluble during application for cleanup, it forms a lasting barrier once dried and bonded to the surface.
How thick should I apply the coating?
Apply in thin, even coats. Multiple thin coats are more effective for both thermal and acoustic performance than a single heavy application.
Troubleshooting
Uneven spray pattern or sputtering.
Ensure the can is thoroughly shaken and held upright. If the nozzle is clogged, carefully clean it with a fine needle or replace the can.
Coating appears thin or ineffective after drying.
Apply additional thin, even coats. Ensure the surface was properly prepared and that the spray was applied from the recommended distance.
Water cleanup is difficult.
Ensure cleanup is performed while the coating is still wet. Once cured, water cleanup becomes less effective.
Strong odor during application.
Ensure adequate ventilation in the workspace. The odor is typically temporary and dissipates as the coating dries.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Effectively reduces interior heat build-up.
Noticeably dampens road and engine noise.
Easy to apply with the aerosol can.
Water-soluble formula simplifies cleanup.
Non-toxic, making it safer to use.
Dual-action heat and sound management.
Cons
Only suitable for unfinished automotive interiors.
Requires adequate ventilation during application.
Coverage may be limited by the aerosol can size for large areas.
Results can vary based on application thickness and area treated.
Drying time may be affected by humidity and temperature.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the application area is clean, dry, and free of grease or contaminants. For best results, apply to *unfinished* automotive interior surfaces.
Shake the aerosol can vigorously for at least one minute before use.
Hold the can upright and spray from a distance of 8-12 inches (20-30 cm).
Apply in thin, even coats. Multiple thin coats are more effective than one heavy coat.
Allow each coat to dry sufficiently before applying the next, following product instructions for drying times.
Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying.
Compatibility:
Designed exclusively for unfinished automotive interiors. Not recommended for painted surfaces, exterior use, or finished materials unless specifically tested.
Compatible with most automotive materials found in unfinished interior sections.
Care:
Once fully cured, the coating is durable and requires minimal care.
Clean the treated area with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners.
If reapplication is needed, ensure the surface is clean and dry before spraying.
