FAQs

How many coats of paint should I apply?

Can I use this paint on plastic bumpers?

Yes, Hycote Candy White is suitable for use on plastics. Make sure to use a plastic primer before applying the paint for better adhesion.

Do I need a clear coat?

A clear coat is recommended to protect the paint and enhance the shine and durability of the finish.

How do I clean the spray nozzle?

After use, turn the can upside down and spray until only propellant comes out to clear the nozzle.

What surfaces can I use this paint on?

This paint can be used on metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics, making it versatile for various projects.

Where can I find my car's paint code?

Troubleshooting

Paint is running or sagging.

Apply thinner coats and ensure the can is held the correct distance from the surface. Avoid applying too much paint in one go.

Colour doesn't match the original paint.

Ensure you have the correct colour code for your vehicle. Apply additional coats and consider blending techniques to achieve a better match.

Paint doesn't adhere to the surface.

Ensure the surface is properly cleaned, degreased, and primed before painting. Lightly sand the surface for better adhesion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Clean and degrease the surface thoroughly. Sand the area to be painted, removing any rust or loose paint. Use a primer suitable for the surface material.
