Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparation is Key:
- Clean Thoroughly: Ensure the engine component is completely clean, removing all oil, dirt, and grease. CarPlan Engine Cleaner and Degreaser is recommended for this purpose.
- Ensure Dryness: The surface must be completely dry before application.
Application for Metal Parts:
- Apply the lacquer directly with a clean paintbrush.
Application for Aluminium Parts:
- Clean and degrease the aluminum surface.
- Abrade the surface with wet & dry sandpaper.
- Apply a good quality Etch Primer.
- Once the primer is dry, apply the CarPlan Engine Lacquer with a clean paintbrush.
Drying:
- Allow the painted surface to dry fully before running the engine. This allows the paint to reach its optimal level of protection.
Compatibility:
- Suitable for both plastic and metal engine blocks and inlets.
- Resistant to petrol, oil, and diesel fuel.
Care:
- Once cured, the paint is durable and resistant to typical under-bonnet cleaning methods. Use standard automotive cleaning products, avoiding abrasive materials that could scratch the finish.
