FAQs

What is the specific colour code for this paint?

The specific colour code is White 040, also known as Super White 2 for Toyota vehicles.

How much area can I expect to cover with one can?

This can offers up to double the coverage of conventional spray cans due to its compressed consol technology.

Do I need to use a primer?

For optimal adhesion and a professional finish, it is highly recommended to use a suitable Hycote primer before applying the colour spray.

Can this paint be used on plastic parts?

Yes, it is suitable for most plastic surfaces, provided they are properly primed first.

How should I clean the spray nozzle after use?

After painting, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds until clear propellant emerges. This prevents the nozzle from clogging.

What is the recommended distance for spraying?

Hold the can upright and approximately 25-30cm (10-12 inches) from the surface you are painting.

Can I use this paint on bare metal?

Yes, provided the bare metal surface is first cleaned and treated with an appropriate primer for metal.

Troubleshooting

Uneven spray or splattering

Shake the can thoroughly before and during use. Ensure the can is held at the correct distance and angle. Clean the nozzle by inverting the can and spraying briefly after use. If the nozzle is blocked, remove and soak it in a solvent like cellulose thinners.

Paint not adhering to the surface

Ensure the surface is properly prepared: clean, dry, and free from grease, wax, or rust. Apply a suitable primer before the topcoat. Check compatibility with the underlying surface material.

Poor coverage or thin finish

Apply paint in multiple thin, even coats rather than one thick coat. Ensure adequate drying time between coats. The 'double coverage' is relative to standard cans; very large areas may still require multiple cans.

Runs or drips forming

Apply paint in thinner coats and from the recommended distance. Avoid over-application in one go. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a precise colour match to original factory specifications.
  • Offers superior coverage, meaning less paint is needed for the job.
  • Dries quickly to speed up the application process.
  • Creates a durable and long-lasting finish.
  • Adheres well to properly prepared surfaces.
  • Can be used on a variety of materials beyond just car bodies.

Cons

  • Requires proper surface preparation, including priming, for best results.
  • Effectiveness may vary on unprimed or unsuitable surfaces.
  • 150ml can size may be insufficient for large areas; multiple cans might be needed.
  • Achieving a professional finish often requires the use of complementary Hycote primers and lacquers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and free from grease and dirt. For optimal results, apply a suitable Hycote primer. Shake the can vigorously for at least two minutes after hearing the mixing ball rattle. Hold the can upright and approximately 25-30cm from the surface. Apply paint in thin, even coats, allowing adequate drying time between each coat. For a professional finish, it is recommended to combine with Hycote primer and lacquers.

Compatibility: Suitable for acrylic and cellulose paint finishes. Adheres to most primed metal, plastic, and ceramic surfaces. Test on an inconspicuous area first if unsure.

Care: Store the can in a cool, dry place. After use, invert the can and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. This prevents blockages for future use.
