FAQs

Can I use this on plastic bumpers?

Yes, this paint is designed to be compatible with metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics.

Is this paint suitable for professional spray guns?

This product is specifically formulated for brush application on small chips and scratches; it is not recommended for spray equipment.

How long does it take to dry?

The paint is fast-drying, though exact times depend on ambient temperature and humidity.

Will it fade in the sun?

The paint is specifically formulated for high resistance to sunlight and environmental fading.

Does it need a clear coat over the top?

While the paint is durable on its own, applying a clear coat can add extra depth and protection, especially on metallic finishes.

Can I use this on an old vintage car?

Yes, it is compatible with both modern OEM finishes and older, traditional cellulose paint systems.

Troubleshooting

The paint appears slightly off in color

Ensure the bottle was shaken vigorously for at least two minutes before use to mix the pigments evenly.

The touch-up looks uneven or bumpy

Apply thinner layers and ensure the surface was cleaned of all debris and oxidation before painting.

The paint has thickened in the bottle

Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after every use; if slightly thickened, check that the storage temperature is appropriate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent resistance to sunlight and fading
  • Highly versatile across multiple materials
  • Fast-drying for efficient repairs
  • Compatible with both modern and classic paint types

Cons

  • Not suitable for large area repairs or full panel painting
  • Requires careful preparation to ensure a smooth finish
  • Small bottle size limits the total area of coverage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare for application, shake the container thoroughly to ensure the pigments are correctly dispersed. Ensure the damaged area is dry and sanded lightly if rust is present. This paint is compatible with standard acrylic and cellulosic primers. For long-term storage, ensure the cap is tightened firmly after each use to prevent the solvent from evaporating, which can cause the paint to thicken. Keep the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the resin technology.
