FAQs

What surfaces can I use this spray paint on?

This paint is suitable for most primed automotive surfaces, including metal, plastic (with appropriate plastic primer), and previously painted finishes. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.

How long does it take to dry?

What does 'unlimited pot life' mean?

It means the paint inside the can will not dry out or become unusable over time. You can use as much or as little as you need from the can, and store the remainder for future use, ensuring no product is wasted.

What is the heat resistance of this paint?

The paint has a heat resistance of up to 100°C.

How should I store the spray paint can?

Store the can in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and open flames. Ensure the nozzle is clear before storing.

Do I need a special primer for plastic parts?

Yes, for optimal adhesion and finish on plastic parts, it is recommended to use a specific plastic primer before applying the auto spray paint.

What is the shelf life of the product?

The product has a shelf life of 60 months.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray or splattering

Shake the can more frequently during use. Ensure the nozzle is not clogged. Hold the can at a consistent distance and move steadily.

Runs or drips

Apply paint in lighter, thinner coats. Ensure the can is held at the correct distance (typically 20-30cm). Avoid spraying in excessively humid or cold conditions.

Poor adhesion

Verify the surface was properly cleaned and prepared. Ensure the correct primer was used if applying to bare plastic or metal. Allow adequate drying time between coats.

Can not spray

Ensure the nozzle is clear and properly attached. Shake the can thoroughly. If the issue persists, the can may be empty or faulty.
