FAQs

Can I paint over Gravitex Stone Chip Protector?

Yes, it is designed to be fully overpaintable once it has reached the appropriate cure stage.

What tools do I need to apply this?

You will need a standard automotive Schutz application gun and an air compressor.

Is this suitable for use on the exterior of the car?

It is intended for use on panels that will be overpainted, such as lower door sills and valances.

Do I need to prime the surface before applying Gravitex?

For best results, apply to a clean, sanded surface, or over a suitable metal primer if bare metal is exposed.

Does it provide sound deadening benefits?

While its primary role is stone chip and corrosion protection, the thick, rubberized nature of the coating does provide some acoustic dampening properties.

Troubleshooting

Poor adhesion to the surface

Ensure the surface was thoroughly degreased and sanded slightly if the area is glossy.

Inconsistent spray pattern

Check your Schutz gun nozzle for blockages and ensure the air compressor is providing a steady pressure.

Topcoat not sticking to the protector

Ensure the Gravitex has fully cured as per the recommended drying times before applying primers or paint.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent resistance to stone chipping and road debris
  • Provides a strong barrier against rust-inducing moisture and salt
  • Fully overpaintable for a professional, color-matched finish
  • Suitable for both underbody and exposed body panels
  • Flexible coating prevents cracking under thermal stress

Cons

  • Requires specific application equipment like a schutz gun
  • Surface must be thoroughly cleaned and degreased for optimal adhesion
  • Not intended for application over loose rust without prior treatment

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum effectiveness, the surface must be clean, dry, and free of oil or grease. Remove any loose paint or rust prior to application. Use a standard underbody Schutz-style application gun to spray the contents of the 1000ml container directly onto the intended surface. Always follow local environmental guidelines regarding disposal of any leftover material. Store in a cool, dry place and ensure the container is tightly sealed to maintain product integrity between uses.
