FAQs

Can I use this on all types of plastic?

It is suitable for selected plastics. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first and use a dedicated plastic primer for the best adhesion.

How should I prepare a glossy surface?

Lightly abrade the glossy surface with fine-grit sandpaper to create a profile for the paint to grip onto, then wipe away all dust.

Is this paint suitable for outdoor furniture?

Yes, this formula is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, offering good durability for various environments.

How many coats should I apply?

For best results, apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat, allowing for drying time between each application.

Do I need a primer for metal or wood?

While it can adhere to many surfaces, a primer is always recommended for bare wood or metal to ensure the smoothest finish and best longevity.

Troubleshooting

Paint is dripping or running

You are applying too much paint at once. Apply thinner coats from a slightly further distance.

Poor adhesion or peeling

The surface may not have been cleaned properly or lacked proper abrasion. For plastics, ensure a dedicated primer was used.

Nozzle is clogged

Turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the valve, or wipe the nozzle tip with a solvent-dampened cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper preparation is the most critical step to ensure longevity and finish quality.

  1. Surface Prep: Ensure the target surface is entirely clean, dry, and free of any grease, oil, or dust.
  2. Abrasion: Use fine-grit sandpaper to lightly abrade glossy or very smooth surfaces, which helps the enamel bond more effectively.
  3. Priming: When painting plastics, apply a dedicated plastic primer first to ensure proper adhesion, as this material can be prone to peeling if not treated.
  4. Application: Shake the can thoroughly before use. Apply in light, sweeping motions rather than focusing too long on one spot to prevent dripping.
  5. Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place and ensure the nozzle is clear after use to prevent clogging.
